I know nothing about Pokémon; it completely skipped me somehow growing up in the 90s. Now, my nephew is asking for Pokémon card packs for Christmas. I looked on Amazon, since I’ll need to ship anyway, but was royally confused by colors and boosters and foils.

He has like a dozen cards now, but wants more to play with friends at school.

What the hell am I supposed to be looking for?

    Or, you can draw them yourself for a personalised gift which he will treasure forever!

      That would be neat, but if he’s looking to actually play the game, those cards won’t be usable. If he’s younger (and needs real cards to play at all) then that will probably matter more to him than a hand-drawn card would.
