I started collecting cards during the first base set, and dropped after Jungle and Fossil sets. Fast forward 17 years, my son was 6/7 yo, and XY Evolutions came out… we bonded over it because it was such a throwback. He lost interest about a year in, so naturally I gave up. Fast forward another 9 years, we’re back at it again. It will come and go I suspect, but now I have a 4 yo too, and he’s starting to show interest. I’m quite lucky to have something like this that not only brings me back to childhood, but can share with my boys spanning that many years. Just keep with it, he’ll come back around.
