Buying for a child?

  • A reprint set. Base Set 2 reuses Base Set and Jungle cards, so it is a way into the classic artwork. It has no 1st Edition stamp, so a stamped card in this set is not from the normal print.
  • These are collectors' cards, not toys. Cards from 1999 to 2003 are long out of print and the originals are not made for hard play. Sleeve them and keep them out of the sun.
  • Check what you're being sold. Look for the 1st Edition stamp (where the set has one), the set symbol and the printed card number, and be careful with sealed packs and boxes of unknown history.
  • Cards are in English and these sets predate the code cards in modern packs, so there is no Pokémon TCG Live code.
