Pokemon cards hit a nostalgia wave hard! Lots of grown-ups who collected them as kids started diving back in, especially during the pandemic when everyone was looking for hobbies. Plus, celebs and influencers showing off their collections on social media definitely gave it a massive boost. It's not just about the cards; it's reliving childhood memories and being part of a community that loves Pokemon.

It's all about the $$$ for some people. With the news about cards selling for thousands, everyone suddenly wanted in on the action, thinking they'd strike gold with a rare card find.

Short answer? Streaming and social media. You got big names on Twitch and YouTube opening packs, making it super entertaining. It's like, one minute you're watching for the nostalgia, the next you're hooked and buying your own packs!

Honestly, I think it's simpler than everyone thinks. Pokemon never really went away, it just ebbed and flowed in popularity. With the new games, shows, and merchandise constantly coming out, it's always on people's radar. Cards just got their turn in the spotlight again.
