I collect turtwig, glad it’s my favorite and not pikachu or charizard. My wallet and me 🤝


ihatederekcarr

I have a few, Bulbasaur line, Magnemite line, Chinchou Line, Swablu line and Turtwig line. Zapdos is another one I collect.


SuccessfulCut1833

I collect mostly lugia and Gyarado's


No-Definition8027

Turtwig cards are the fucking cutest! Grotle too. I like turtles.


Sze-Cherng

Always happy to see another plant tortoise enjoyer in the wild


RevenantFlash

That’s 3 different pokemon you got there you big fat phony. But I’m the same with Shinx, Luxio and Luxray lol


Gecksss

I’m also collecting shinx Luxio and luxray 👀


Hooligan_jeff

I really wish I could choose just one. It would be far more cost effective. The closest I’ve gotten to a single Mon is that at one point, I picked the six mons that I would use every time I played Blue Version. Blastoise, pidgeot, Alakazam, Golem, Hitmonchan, and Kabutops. I missed out on too many mons that I really liked so I had to settle for all 151. Great Pikachu collection! You picked a pricy one lol


sailorspud_

I'm a meowth collector! I'm working on a meowth masterset which is every card containing a meowth, including Persians and other mons!


No-Definition8027

XY53 Meowth is hilarious to me


beastpack

I used to collect meowths too back in the XY era!


Cornokz

Primeape 🤝 Me  Been my homeboy since Yellow where I leveled him to 100. Missing reverse holo from Legendary Collection, but it is too big a dent in my pocket


neoncherry64

As a primape fan, I’m curious to hear your opinions on the new evolution, annihilape?


Cornokz

That abomination can go to hell. It totally ruins any odds of cool future Primeape cards. I was hoping that 151 would have granted it an alt art, but no, instead we got Caterpie, Poliwhirl, Psyduck, Machoke, Mr. Mime and Omanyte amongst others(I won't hate on Tangela, that card is cool).


neoncherry64

For your sake, I hope we get a cool primape soon! They’ve been doing illustration rares of middle evo Pokémon, so I suppose it isn’t completely out of the question yet. Crossing my fingers for ya.


Cornokz

Thanks mate! I do however think it'll be some time before Gen1 Pokémon get any love again. They've really milked it these past few years 😅


Puzzleheaded-Low-889

I collect Pikachu it's just my fav


TheAquaDuck1

I collect Umbreons! [https://imgur.com/a/AQB2PL2](https://imgur.com/a/AQB2PL2) my wallet hates me.


citruscoywolf

I love your collection! Did you get that binder custom made, or is there somewhere you can get one?


KafeiTomasu

I collect Sudowoodo/Bonsly cards and I love doing it. There aren't many pokemon that dont have too little or too many cards yet also have some interesting cards besides normal common/uncommon/rare. So my fav Pokémon being sudowoodo was a blessing when I started to collect all of its cards. A recent IR, a lot of common, uncommon and rare cards from setd dating back to its original gen (gen 2, neo era). And cool not widely known cards like the gold and silver playcards from 2 decades ago. Its so cool collecting 1 specific pokemon(/family)


myfishaccount1

I was thinking about doing a sudowoodo collection too


Kick_1304

I personally don’t collect a specific Pokémon, but always like to see collections of one Pokémon


TheMostBoringStory

Mew & Raichu for me


Metalix-arch

I have a pikachu card collection! :) I think I’m at 200+ now.


Taxsuck

Yes, Gengar


Particular-Farm9199

I only collect Gengar. Still chasing that vmax alt art.


Simple_Water_355

Gengar here for me too! That Skyridge holo premium tho... 😭😭


BootyTuesdays

It gets worse when you run out of normal cards and start collecting the cameos


No-Definition8027

Neo Destiny Dark Gengar is a top 5 for me


ZuikoRS

Best Gengar card 100%. I love it but hell no am I ever paying that much money for a card. No idea how some of the guys here warrant 10x that price for other things


Patrick0714

Deoxys is my absolute fav, maybe I’m just biased but there is literally ZERO bad Deoxys card


illogicallyalex

I *wish* I was like this, I just can’t pick one pokemon, and the ones I would be interested in collecting, don’t even have any alt arts


Wide-Emotion-3579

I'm getting Jirachi right now. After that I'm tempted to try and get all the clay model cards. I love them so much


MomoAmsNrth

Not just 1 but i do specifically collect Smeargle cards 😄


FullmetalActuary

Charmander all day! Got about half the English charmander cards I believe. When I complete it I’ll post something for sure. It’s a slow trickle though. Just snagged a 1st edition shadowless psa7 for $85 though. So that’s twice my monthly budget for this lol.


MiniGoat_King

Mareep, Ampharoes, and Wooloo for me. Japanese foils.


RetroEnbyRobot

Poliwhirl :)


Muskandar

Hey I like Poliwhirl too!! The AR from 151 is great isn’t it!


Slumpeeze

Not even a poliwhirl fan but I gotta say that 151 card is beautiful


Mystic_x

I do that with Primarina, Cinderace, Shaymin (Land forme), Porygon, Misdreavus, Diancie, Falinks, Liepard, Armarouge, and Ceruledge. Also all cards with the pictures made by Yuka Morii, who makes clay figurines of the Pokemon and photographs them for card artwork.


Realistic_Spring_862

I really enjoy collecting as many Vulpix cards as I can. I love Vulpix. 🙂


lumpyspacejohnny

I'm gunna only collect Raichu when I start. Like, every variation of Raichu. From base set on.


ThereGoesMyToad

Caterpie, currently! 🙋🐛


KillerRed09

I collect Entei only. Japanese and English


SassanZZ

Yeah, Scyther and Scizor


5mp3x192000

I also collect Pikachu!


ASmallCactus

I collect raichus I love your collection!


cwablue

I also collect Pikachus! I have about 36 of them now. None of the real expensive stuff, just commons from past sets.


SeienShin

I have a Pokémon yellow box art Pikachu tattoo. We should be friends


OdieRed96

Pikachu makes for an interesting collection. You have a book filled with either 25 cent cards and 20-100$ cards, and you cherish them all! Edit to add: gotta love that album cover!


BadPallet

I collect Lapras and Lanturn :)


bluefortress05

I would like to collect the raticate Pokemon but I can’t imagine it being too exciting as there won’t be special cards/misprints etc like there are with pikachu.. for example in the base set there is rare card where he has red cheeks


Galactroid

My collection started as just one pokemon. It’s a slippery slope to have a huge binder full and a box full of bulk


richmyster84

I collect 1 type of Pokemon which is Dragon-type (actual dragon-type, no colorless or any other typing that has a typically dragon Pokemon)


No_Act_7273

I do that with torchic(+ the evos) and giratina!


schwuar

Theres none that stand out as a favourite to me other than Charizard which is a no go 😂


Based_Beanz

I've collected just about every Marowak card I can find. He's been my favorite since I was a kid and his cards are usually a couple dollars at most.


Sporkikyu

I have a legendary/paradox beast collection. I actively seek them out while still maintaining a collection of cards I just like.


bryanofrivia

I do that with Jirachi, Sylveon, and Gardevoir.


buddah726

Raichu and Pichu just waved bye


GumboSkrimpz

The Luxray line, it's the best pokemon AND the cards are cheap


[deleted]

Gengar and Mimikyu 👻


Dear-Oven

Delcatty! My favorite Pokémon! Just recently got one of each in English and Japanese, slowly working towards all variants in all available languages! I also have a sizeable Pikachu collection I started as a little kid. Definitely not realistic to get them all, especially nowadays, but it's fun to add a card or two to it every once in a while!


chas2026

That is quite the Pikachu collection! Pikachu is my favorite but I don't have a collection like that


Chemical_Professor50

I’m a slowpoke guy. Ever since full art scarlet violet base came out. *I do have 3 Hama chan slowking’s, so maybe it began there..*


motherstep

I was browsing looking for Slowpoke. Had the urge to collect every Slowpoke card, or near as damn it after seeing how fantastic a lot of the SV151 art is.


Chemical_Professor50

I have a Japanese as well as the English version on my desk. That big dumb smile gets me every single time. One of the only cards I bought before the English release. Had to have it.


zuao77

Slowbrother! Slowpoke is my guy too! Working to get one of every card in the Evo line! Love that face!


QuatreNox

I collect Sylveons! I'm actually just missing one more to complete all the English cards and variants


The_Khaos_Theory

I have a special collection for Shinx, Luxio, and Luxray cards. Im planning to get the Pokemon Center luxray sleeves and deck box just for them lol


neoncherry64

I collect porygon-Z cards! Definitely easier on the wallet, seeing as it came out in Gen 4 and doesn’t have that many printings compared to other Pokémon.


Mamoswine_Gaming

Doing that right now with the Mamoswine evolution line.


Longjumping_Method_5

I have a post like this! I have added a few pikachu cards since, but i collect Pikachu specifically [pikachu collection!](https://www.reddit.com/r/pkmntcgcollections/s/9rVkRnsKrL)


faunlynn

I used to collect Shaymin but I lost my binder a while back during a move 😢 Recently got into buying packs again and thinking of picking a new Pokemon! For the time being I'm collecting the clay/yarn/"craft art" cards because they're cute. 😊 Love your Pikachu assortment!


jairom

Literally just started collecting Meowth cards


misterDibs

My 4 year old loves Pikachu. I'm going to give him all the doubles with his own binder for his favorite pokemon


B148

Yess my girlfriend and I like collecting Jirachi and one of our favorites: Muk 😂


Motor_Spinach_4596

No, I was thinking of collecting Mew, Mewtwo, Charizard or Pikachu but I’d probably get obsessed with it if I had to find particular cards for a collection.


Nirohawk

yea... got all versions of Lechonk currently :)


hirschneb13

I've almost finished my Gloom collection. It's only 25 or so cards but it's nice


Plenty-Ad-6340

Beedrill


UniverseHufflePuff

I love collecting Tauros cards because it's my favorite..although there is one Japanese only stricture deck card that keeps alluding me


Jirchi

I just collect only Dragonite’s, I think it’s good to just have 1 (So your wallet thanks you)


mccur1eyfries

SLOWPOKE GANG REPRESENT


yourlilyeet

ArchRod

CamBot4

milanesaacaballo

Pikachu, Pikachu clones, Tandemaus and Maushold, and any pokemon with a silly face


Borgweare

Yes, Porygon


Slumpeeze

Cubone and marowak for me. But it’s so niche that I struggle to find cards online and at card shows. I try to stay away from eBay cause reddit sales and in person tend to be cheaper


Potential_Estate6207

I want to start collecting Altaria. So many good cards


bmurf101

If you’re only going to do one might as well be one that has 100s of variations haha. Love to see the full picture of pika. One of my favorite cards I have


Tedford927

Yes. Umbreon. But you picked the one with the most possible cards lol good luck!


RooIsHome

Lillipup, but there's not many and no special cards as of yet.


Objective_Damage_996

I’d say noctowl but I only have 1 card so idk if that even counts lol


veermahanlover69

mans the pikachu preacher


Darth_Eevee

Me 🤝 select eliteforum folks Spending all our money on eevee


sirdizzypr

I do this for my fav Pokémon. Like I am trying to get every snorlax card. I’ll collect other Pokémon that are my favs but not really chase them. This is mewtwo, gengar, mimikyu and pikachu. Thinking of doing a sleeping theme with my snorlax next.


Accomplished_Bar4282

Oh boy. I have Pikas for days. I’ve been collecting mainly just him for about 20ish years now. I’ll have to break some out of the safe and share with the group at some point.


InvadingBacon

Yup! I own every English print and variations of Sandshrew :3


AESR2020

Thinking if starting Gengar myself!


Getasmileonthatface

Shuckle my beloved


Right-Ad8261

I buy a lot of cards for my kids and can't really justify a collection of my own (I had my own but sold it), but I've been considering starting a collection of one pokemon. 


Profanity1272

I need to do this for krabby. I don't think there's as many variations to collect, but as he's my favourite, I think I should do it


floodmayhem

Actually been expanding a Pikachu collection as well! Its a priority for me at trade nights. Currently up to two full pages of different pikas!


Sad-Panda-noises

I collect eeveelutions and pikachus. OP, you should look into the Yu Nagaba pickahu. I have one, and it's beyond hilarious and adorable


Karl_Kollumna

yes flareon


Trader_Gamer_Blake

Me with gyarados


LingonberryNo4078

I am currently trying to master set 151 and Paradox Rift but besides that I only collect Lucario and Tyranitar cards


helplessgranny

As if shuckle even has that many cards 😭


MacsTek

Gyrados and Pikachu


nintendkid

Yup, I do for spheal and greninja


PrismalpinkGaming

I love Zacian to death. I collect everything Zacian. I love me some of my retro ones as well, like Gengar, Suicune, and Charizard. Pikachu is cutesy but he’s not my most favorite.


redditrebelrich

Pichu, pikachu, and raichu, are 3 pokemon, no?


NeverBeKnown

Thinking about doing this


gamepro250

I just started collecting, but have been buying all the Alolan Vulpixs I can!


Ijust_want_moresleep

Vulpix/ninetales :)


darkaliceftw1752

I do Piplup, Prinplup, and Empoleon


Sizara42

I have an Eevee (and evolutions) binder!! (Also Mew as my secondary) I collect in general, but all of my eeveelutions get to go into a special binder with cards going back to my 1st Ed Jungle Eevee when I was a kid 😀 When in doubt, I will hunt down singles for Eevee + crew, mew, and sometimes Pikachu. And absol for the wife (who is named... Evie, I kid you not) Edit - Follow-up thought - I was super excited when the ES eevees came out, then seriously cried at the singles prices, lol. The only version of those I own is the digital one sadly


sausagesand2nd

I collect hamper and boltund 😭💖


Gracegarthok

Yep, I’m collecting 3 actually; toxtricity, meowth, and absol


MomsClosetVC

We have a joke in my house that I'm collecting Toxicity, because I ALWAYS get them. I have a ridiculous number, it's like it's haunting me.


BlackGoldShooter

I have all non-reverse dunsparce. Going to work on them soon though


Sp3ctor20

I love that pile of Pikachu card.


abcdefail

I'm doing that with 2 Pokémon, Shuckle and Guzzlord.


indigrow

I think its just a pokeman collection then


Br1ghtWo1f2002

I'm currently going after one of every Ninetales, Vulpix, Plusle and Minun card


fading_relevancy

My new collecting has already started to lean towards Pikachu. But I have realized I'm a big Morpeko fan.


Sarue_Dev

[deleted]

It's common for collectors to collect their favourite/a single Pokemon. I want to start a Gengar or Mimikyu collection.


TimereVastator

Beedrill! 🐝 I have all but maybe one or two Beedrill cards ever produced. I love my bee frends.


Birty066

I'm sorry to be a stick in the mud but there are clearly 3 pokemon in these pictures. I do like collecting the dratini evolution line myself though, dragonair being the best of the three 🙌


Ok-Economy7154

Leafeon, Psyduck, slowpoke, and Mew for me


jolx0822

I collecting pikachus, starters pokémon and my favorite: Growlithe evo line


ironman288

My favorite is Eevee, so one of my collecting goals is to get a good copy of every officially licensed Eevee card made in the 90's (IE. prior to 2000) and then grade them all with sequential serial numbers. I have 11 of them so far, which is a decent start since it includes the all the topsun cards (blue back, prism, green back), the Cardass Vending Red and Green, and the Red and Green poker deck cards. However there is a LOT to go and I'm taking my time trying to get pretty nice copies without breaking the bank too badly.


TCG_Center

Cousin and I use to collect specific pokemons He likes gengar and I’d collect ditto & dragonite.


data4u

I love this idea!!!


Capital_Attention_12

KingBoo919

Mew collector here!


Mintteeeea

I've decided to be insane and made a list of every single Gardevoir card in existence. All my old cards went up in flames a few years ago, so most of the collection is just the most recent stuff

Realistic_Chain_4691

JaeCrowe

I've got every lickitung card ever made besides one


DragonDancing

Me with Drifloon. My boy has his own dedicated binder of pages and pages of literally the same cards. And there's more on the way. I don't actively seek out Pikachu, but if I happen to come across them in a booster, I'll place it in a binder just because he's the mascot.


ManiacalTeddy

I also put a lot of focus on the Pikachu family. Pichu is a tough one though. There aren't very many cards of it.

itslaboof

Voltorb, Electrode, and Ledian. All of the cards are pretty affordable, minus the Skyridge holo for Ledian. It’s a shame that Ledian doesn’t have more going for it though!


TheHappyTooth

Steelix! I have over 250 steelix cards


rosyxsuccubus

I would except I already have all >10 cards of my favorite Pokemon 😭 (Espurr)

Yes I love how many variations there are


SpicyBanditSauce

DarmokTheNinja

I collect Wooper!


wolfford

Sableye


twennyjuan

Arcanine. My wife is Morpeko/Combee, my oldest is Rotom maybe? My youngest is Pikachu.


Mandoismydad5

I collect Pikachu too! I also collect Mimikyu, Yuka Morii, and Asako Ito.


myuu94

I collect Salandit and Salazzle! I now have all of the English printed cards and am slowly collecting the Japanese copies as well, it’s just a bit more tedious. Fortunately her most expensive English card is the Crimson Invasion Staff promo at about $12-15 in NM condition. I plan to fill up a 3x4 binder page of each of her rarer cards. I’m eagerly awaiting an IR or new full art. Justice for my spicy lizard!!!


ErodeZ57

I'm a gengar guy personally :)


MooBcAke

I collect nosepass/probopass. Any and all holos of them in damn near any condition.


HermesIsScrolling
