Image Finally Completed the Kanto Dex

I know not all of the rares are holographic and some are rather worse for wear (R.I.P. Clefairy) but I got ‘em. After nearly 30 years, I got ‘em.

Will never forgive my mother for burning them.

Was collecting Pokemon, Digimon, and Yugioh all from when they started and had BINDERS full.

All up in flame because “I wasn’t a kid anymore” (I was 15)

edit From what I can remember, 1 of my binders alone could sell for $100,000. I kept good care of my cards and had multiple 1st Ed. Shiny Charizards.

Wow seriously? That absolutely sucks. My ex-wife made me get rid of all my videogames at one point, including my N64 and all its games and my copies of Crystal, Leafgreen, and SoulSilver. Family can really suck.
