World's Largest Pokemon Collection Could Sell for Over $300,000
The world's largest Pokemon collection is headed for auction and is expected to earn around £300,000 or $340,000 when it sells. In the two decades the series has been around, the Pokemon has emphasized collecting with «Gotta catch 'em all» being the anime's slogan not just for show. Whether players are looking to fill out the Pokedex in the games, or get all the cards in the latest Pokemon TCG set, there are always more Pokemon to catch and more things to get.
In the latest Pokemon game release, the developers even altered the rewards players get for collecting, and Pokemon Legends: Arceus' Pokedex was seen as a natural step forward for the franchise, giving players greater incentives to explore every nook and cranny of the world around them. Outside of the games, plenty of Pokemon fans have made impressive collections of their own, from buying all the merchandise for one specific creature to making their own collectibles dedicated to their favorite generation or setting.

While the $340,000 the collection is expected to earn might not break records for the most expensive piece of Pokemon merch, it is certainly a high price for anyone wanting to take on the mammoth lot of items.
