Well, I kinda got some old pokemon cards that I hung onto from when I was a child (I didn't collect, got given some and bought my favourite ones at a collecting ring in town)
I've only kept them for seven odd years because they were my favourite pokemon, but now I need space!
They're all mint condition, but I can't get pics at the moment, here is who I have:

Machamp Original Shiny
Blissey Original Shiny
Strange Chinese One Shiney - Will have to get a pic, it's been an 'unknown' since it was given to me by my friend when I was six. It has a pink dope eyed pokemon on it, and something spiky and grey is biting it's tail (that's the pokemon description from me! LOL XD)
Suicune.
Dark Flareon.
Dark Vaporeon.
Flareon.
Raikou.

Also just remembered something super sad- I was four and had a shiny mewtwo and some sick fourteen year old traded me a worthless card for it, and at the time I had no idea how rare it was. :( Eurgh, stupid me!

If I have more, I'll add to the list, but can anyone give me a ballpoint price on each and also is anyone interested in purchasing them all from me?
Thank you!

I remember being addicted to these years ago!!

I used to go onto Yahoo auctions (yep I did say years ago!!) to but them, I really wanted Rapidash and I couldnt get her here in the decks..

Im clueless about them now though, but I know Ive seen some Pokemon people around here :)

You have 2 of the 3 legendary dogs! I don't know if the first series are worth much today, but I'm not too sure. The only thing I do remember is that the first release Charizard went for about more than a hundred at some point. Not too sure about now. I hope someone here is interested!

That dopey pokemon you mentioned, I'm guessing is Slowbro.XP

YES IT WAS SLOBRO! The chinese shiny version! Thanks for the help putting a name to the terrible description! XD

Yes, I don't even know why I got 2 of the 3 of the legendary dogs, I think I must have got them at the TY beanie shop they used to have in town, I bought tonnes of packs down there whilst buying beanies years ago!

Oh dear god, I remember that charizard card! :facepalm: One got stolen at my school, and the whole school was up in the air, it was so ridiculous, the headmaster was saying 'we need to find it now! Whoever took it has detention for the next week.' Dear lord, had forgotten about that! XD

When it comes to cards, it helps to know what set they're from - Assuming they're from the earliest release, I don't believe any are particularly sought after. The chinese one sounds like Slowbro :)

only if it's first edition. any reprints aren't worth that at all, it must say first edition on the card. the $500 ones on ebay are also shadowless.

I collect pokemon cards and play the tcg, and I agree with everyone who said that only first edition cards are worth anything. The first few sets of pokemon had more printings each than the most recent few sets put together.
The Machamp is probably the holo that came with the theme deck back in the day.  You may be able to get a few dollars each for the Dark Flareon and Dark Vaporeon, but honestly the worth of all those cards together is maybe 10 dollars if you find someone interested.

I have a handful of 1st edition cards.. as well as a heckload of shinies, and a good few hundred originals stashed away somewhere. XD One day I do believe I'll part with them.. Would need to look into it more, though.

Sorry for being dim but do first edition cards actually have 'First Edition' printed on them then?
