The old pokemon cards are not worth very much.The only ones worth something are the rares.By the way, to all of you that were saying Pokemon is retarded and unpopular, you are dead wrong. The game continues to get more popular and has always been popular.

THEY MAKE GOOD FIREWOOD

Answer 3

I hope so otherwise id have to get rid of all of mine and i have loads of shineys or we could try and bring pokemon back into popularity

Answer 4

Probably not, and if so, not for a very long time. A lot of people actually saved their cards and probably have the same idea as you.

Answer 5

nah, probably not. You should have sold them when Pokemon was popular. I recently sold my whole colllection at a garage sale for five bucks.

Answer 6

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like Pokemon is a franchise that is going to remain popular. Magic prices continue to rise because the game is still growing. This isn't the case with the kid's versions of the game, Pokemon and Yugioh.

Answer 7

Pokemon is retarded! =] People who like pokemon need to get some lives.. and do something better with their time.

Answer 8

they will be worth lots money in the future

Answer 9

I think they may be worth something significant when you're an old old man, but I think there are too many people out there with similar collections with the same idea.

Basically, I wouldn't count on making much this lifetime. Give it to your great Grandson as you're dying. Maybe he'll make some cash.

Answer 19

I personally think that they would never be worth something unless the show stops playing on TV.

Answer 20

some are. one of my friends has a charizard (spelling) worth 150$ or something

look them up on ebay, add them together and subtract 10% they'll sell.

Answer 21

nope

Answer 22

sorry,but probably not. They were only popular back in 2000 and 2001. But who knows,maybe in the future,they will become popular again! Someone who is a real fan of them may pay alot of money to get their hands on your collection ;)

Answer 23

id say look it up on ebay under sold items...see how much people got for a complete set...then consider puting you own set up =) good luck hope this helps.

In your dreams!
