cards are well-known and easily recognized around the world. The card game aspect of the franchise is a huge part of the game's marketing and merch, and it has a loyal following among collectors.
There is something extremely rewarding about opening a booster pack and finding a rare card, for both hardcore collectors and casual fans alike.
But the cards that fans know and love today are not the only version of the cards that have ever existed. For a brief period in the 1990s, the well-known cards were joined by a run of the brightly colored green and red Topsun cards. Some fans even believe that these were the first cards to exist.
Whether or not the Topsun set predates the current cards, these unique cards represent a part of history that few fans know about.
Topsun was a set of collectible cards featuring Pokémon that were released to promote the first games in the 1990s.
