Opening EVERY Pack of Pokemon Cards EVER!

What’s your favorite Gen 1 Pokemon?

The trip down memory lane was so surreal. I lost a childhood friend of mine almost 2 years now and we played every Pokémon game up until around platinum on ds while going into 7 grade. It’s wild to think we were destroying so many skyridge cards to scan on our game boys. Seeing the artwork of all the older wizards of the coast packs got me happy and emotional. Sometimes you never really appreciate the small thing until years and years past by. Long time fan of what you do for this community. Keep rocking Leon!

My favorite is Golbat. Because here in Germany Burger Kings gave out plush Pokemon with their kids meal and I drew Golbat. Pure nostalgic memories!

It’s taken me 3 different days, multiple meals a day to watch this full video through haha. Thank you for it! Love snorlax from gen 1! I remember being so confused as a kid on how to get past him in red version games

Great video! I always enjoy these videos of opening 1 of every pack; it's a great way to show people newer to the hobby what we were able to experience since the very beginning! As far as the question, my favorite gen 1 Pokemon, and favorite Pokemon of all time, is Gengar! I've always been drawn toward ghost Pokemon for some reason, primarily because I think their attacks are awesome, but Gengar appealed to me right away as a kid and has been my favorite ever since!!

i love the nostalgia i get from watching these sets being opened

Gyarados. Was always my favorite Pokemon to use in the original games. Those games got me through some tough times as a kid. didn't really get the opportunity to collect the cards but I was lucky enough for the games and the show. love that you are still a kid on the inside and sharing your love for the cards and knowledge with all of us.

Favorite Gen 1 pokemon is definitely Gengar. I love his tragic backstory, it makes him a very complex and relatable pokemon.

Gotta be charmander for me. Was my first ever gen 1 starter. So many memories. Christmas morning, 2002, getting pokemon Ruby while my friend got Sapphire. Sitting outside on the doorstep for 4 hours straight playing the games together. That excitement, the rush of playing my first pokemon game. Then came pokemon fire red. Getting to experience the original generation but remastered, after I'd had the cards and watched the anime for years. That feeling is pure nostalgia and has kept me as a fan my whole life. Very glad I was part of the early days of pokemon.

As someone who just got back into card collecting with 151, SOOO fun to see these opening and all the packs I missed during my broke years hahah Nidoking was always my favorite, using thrash at early levels in Pokémon BLUE and earthquaking everything in the elite four was epic. He was also cool as heck in the show!

My favorite Gen 1 Pokemon is Slowbro. Mon is underappreciated and the mysterious evolution of a Shelder supposedly helping them evolve but then other times they just evolve from battle. Also they are said to be able to unevolve. I kinda like that they either messed up the continuity or its just more mysterious than we know. Also in the game Regenerator plus its physical bulk is *chefs kiss*

Thanks Leonhart for being consistent for us to come back after long days and relive the best moments of our childhood

Leon, thank you so much for the video! Seeing you open all the packs from your personal collection was a great treat. My favorite Gen 1 Pokemon is Nidoking. I have always thought he looked so cool. Not to mention him having Horn Drill back in the day was such a cool risk reward concept to me. Still one of my top 5 to this day out of all the generations.

Thanks for doing these videos leonhart! This has been so fun to watch over the years!

Gengar is for sure my favorite, his abandonment story hits my soul but overall he’s the coolest, strongest dude 🥺💜

My favorite gen 1 Pokémon is Poliwhirl. Love the design and the fact that it's Red's first Pokémon in the manga

Honestly one of the most entertaining videos you’ve made, time traveling through all the sets and viewing how much the artwork has evolved/changed was such a blessing. Most importantly, i got to see many packs I’d never seen before being opened. Thanks.

I love how the most-viewed part is Steam Siege. As someone whose favorite set of all time is Steam Siege, I see this as a HUGE win

My favorite Gen 1 Pokemon has to be Magikarp, because I too only know how how to Struggle. But also because it evolves into one of the most bad to the bone Pokemon.

Meowth is definitely my favorite because of the show, he’s a big ole goof and that dang lil coin on his head is pretty neat
