Pokemon Marbles

Aside from cards, Pokemon can also come in the form of marbles. Just like the cards, these glass balls are also highly tradable and collectible. If you haven’t seen one, it is just the standard marble but with a picture of a specific Pokemon. Retro Dodo mentioned that there are 50 different marbles for Series 1, numbered from #001 to #050. When buying one, it comes in 1990s slice-proof packaging, which includes a nice-looking pouch.

This pouch is also numbered and has a Pokemon print, which makes it a collectible item as well. Yup, Pokemon is synonymous with trade and collection. Players and collectors spend a lot of money and probably get cash loans just to get items to add to their collections.
