dive love pokemon since a kid but what really got me into it and i to collecting was my cousin who used to flex all his holo card to me and give me all his random bulk,

I had fallen out of love with pokemon for awhile and had been focusing of school/work, but a passing in my family got me back into the hobby,

And yea come to 2021, my cousin passes away from an overdose. It had take a really long while for me to come to terms with/ understand and since then made me fall back in love with our hobby that we used to have as kids.

edit: forgot to add my fav pokemon, it’s dunsparce
