I grew up mainly with the 2nd and 3rd gens and remember one kid having 13 Rayquaza ex'es and 6 Lugias, all of which were fake. Apparently he'd paid £50 for them.

Back in my day, we didn't have fancy level-x cards or your flying machines!
Sorry, I couldn't resist. XP
In all seriousness though, I feel like the card game has changed from something that had some strategy involved into he-who-has-the-rarest-cards-wins.
Now I just collect the cards for the pretty pictures. ;D

You can say that again. I think that's the initial reason why people collected cards in the first place.

Indeed, it was one of the best cards because of how much damage it could do, combined with the fact of its good HP and Pokemon Power that made it easier to execute its attack.

Individual cards could sell up for as high as 140 dollars.
