Pokemon 2-Player Starter Set Trading Card Game

For those fond of nostalgia, this is a great buy.I remember being young and naive, having my parentsbuy me this starter set several times.Why? Because I thought I'd get new cards every time.Upon buying this just recently, I noticed that it stated veryclearly that each starter set contains the "SAME" cards.That silliness aside, it was great to have this in my hands again.I've recently set out on a conquest to collect all of the first 151 Pokemon - original cards only.I had many cards come through my hands throughout my childhood, andI would love to relive that rush of excitement I had every time I came face-to-facewith a new card. The new Pokemon (and new cards) are nothing compared to theoriginals.My story aside, this is a great way to secure a few of the standard Pokemon cards.If you're on the same mission as I am, start with this and then buy the first-edition, foil "Booster Packs"in order to catch 'em all.

My son has been getting into a lot of the Pokémon games for the Nintendo DS. I told him that there was a card game that we could play together and he was willing to try it. It has become one of our favorite father and son "hobbies". We play several times a week. The rules are easy to learn, and it plays pretty fast. So you can get several games in during one session.If you're looking for a fun game, especially one that can bring parent and child together, this is a good option.

The box was greatly preserved and all the contents were in their original packaging. Also, the delivery time was even shorter than the estimate.All in all, an excelent purchase.

Just duplicate energy and common cards

A great Starter deck, brings me back to my childhood. there were a lot of doubles, but it was so cool to see all the original cards, and yes I got a 1st edition hold Machamp with it' very happy with what I got.

This was WAY over priced but I am giving it two stars because the decks and instructions were good to get my son started on his pokemon adventures.

TThank you for bringing back childhood memories of my father this card set came in factory sealed packaging and delivered very fast tkank you so much definitely worth the money

I got these for a 6 year old boy as a starter set and he is delighted with them. Great.

As someone who loves Pokemon, and someone who hasn't played the TCG in 20 years because someone stole the cards at school, I never cared to get into the TCG until this was posted.The cards are the original, and has a total of 61 cards. The included holographic Machamp was bent due to packaging, but thw game does still play the same.I was hoping the pack would've had a 60 card deck since that is what you need for a deck, and it is advertised as a 2-player deck. Do not plan to use these cards in more modern decks, because the old cards are VERYA bad to use as they are not effective. I have purchased many more modern decks and packs, and have cuerently sleeved all of these cards and have kept them away. Still fun to look at.
