The Big Book of Pokemon: The Complete Player and Collector's Guide to Every Card and Character

I ordered this book for my son based on the information provided. I am very pleased with the service. My book arrived alot earlier than i had planned, and in much better condition than i had originally thought. It is a great book and very much what i needed for my child. Thank you so very much

When this book was written, Pokemon was the biggest thing on the planet. The book serves primarily as a history book in my opinion. The book is definitely "big" as the cover says. 300 pages! There's full color images of the original 151 Pokemon with their stats. There images of the main characters and Bios. There's images of all the U.S. & Japanese Pokemon cards that existed back then. All the Burger King toys & cards are displayed. And there's Killer Decks for those that want to look back at the theory behind the Power decks.If you or your kids are just getting into Pokemon, this will keep them entertained for hours. If you've been into Pokemon since 1998 ... then you'll have fun looking back on the good times. ;-)Updated - "Make sure to pick up Pojo's Total Pokemon, as it picks up where this book left off, and was updated for 2004!"

This review is being typed on behalf of my 9 year old daughter! She says very informative and a great book for a Pokemon lover!

I think this is a very good book which gives you information about the trading card game and prices(the important things) the only thing which prevents it from getting 5 stars is that new sets are going to come out and this book won't be able to cover them all but it's the best book about the cards which are out there right now

I have many books that have old cards and not current info. but this book as I all all the all the cards ,I say this is the best pokemon price book ever!
