⚡ Learning Pokémon Cards One Pack at a Time

👋 Welcome — I’m Wayne, The Pokémon Novice

At 65, I probably don’t fit the usual age range of Pokémon card collectors. But as I get closer to retirement, I’ve been looking for something new to learn — something that’s colorful, fun, and keeps me curious.

I can’t golf all day, so I decided to dive into something completely different: Pokémon cards.

I’m not an expert — I’m a complete beginner learning as I go. I’ll share my experiences, beginner mistakes, and the small wins that make collecting fun again.
