[quote=Anonymous]Some of the cards are actually more valuable than others, 20:26. The EX cards for instance are worth something like $20-$100 depending on rarity & a kid can actually lose value by trading. One of our neighbor kid's dads came up with a rule when our boys were younger (grade 1-2 like OPs) that everyone had a day to ask for cards back if there was a remorseful party after a bad trade. But we don't actually participate or micromanage trades. There are too many variables to consider when you're trying to decide a good or bad trade (e.g. my son will be trying to build a particular type of deck, water or fire or whatever, so he will deliberately trade good cards from other types he's not trying to collect). OP, the biggest downside is what one PP mentioned: having Pokemon cards incessantly spread all over your house, ALL OVER> And then your kid freaking out looking for a particular missing card when there's no chance in he%^ of finding it. Endless failed organizational systems. And kind of expensive long term once they get more sophisticated about which cards are better/best. But, I agree with PPs who say it's interesting in that is requires a lot of mental calculation. And it's engrossing for the kids and keeps them engaged together in a non-video game pursuit. ;)[/quote]
