Every once in a while, something walks through our doors that makes us stop in our tracks. This weekend, you’ll get to see one of the rarest pieces of Pokémon history we’ve ever had the privilege to showcase.
Back in 2004, Kids’ WB! ran something extraordinary – the Poke Card Creator Contest, inviting young artists to design their own Pokémon cards. Five winners were chosen, and their artwork was turned into real, official Pokémon cards. Here’s the kicker: only 5,250 packs were ever created.
One of our customers was a lucky runner-up winner in that contest and has entrusted these incredible cards to us. We just got them back from PSA, where they’ve been professionally encapsulated to protect them for life. These aren’t your typical tournament prizes or promotional cards – these are one-of-a-kind designs created by kids, for kids, capturing the pure imagination and creativity of Pokémon’s golden era.
With only 5,250 packs ever produced and distributed over 20 years ago, these cards are virtually impossible to find. The artwork, the story, the nostalgia – it’s all here.
Come see them this weekend at Izzi’s Gym. Whether you’re a collector hunting for the holy grail, a long-time fan, or someone who just loves a good story, you need to see these in person.
See you this weekend!
