The highly anticipated 151st set of Pokémon trading cards is set to be released by The Pokémon Company in Japan on June 16. What’s got everyone so worked up? That’s because, for the first time in nearly two decades, all 151 of the original Pokémon from Generation 1 will be available at once. In addition, it’s going to have some extremely beautiful collecting cards.
That keeping score at home knows full well why the OG 151 haven’t been able to get together since the turn of the millennium.
Because a certain mad wizard named Uri Geller, back in his wild litigation days, threatened to sue Pikachu itself into space since the cartoon animal was loosely based on his favorite party trick of bending spoons with the power of his hands, the legend of Pikachu has grown into a legend.

The last few months have seen information about the set trickle out, and at this point, we have a very good sense of what to expect. It’s shaping up to be the best commemoration of Pokémon’s beginnings since the last one. also the prior one. The international release of the collection is a given, although an exact release date has not been announced. We anticipate that it will be sometime in the first week of October.
