A group of 30 Pokémon super-fans has broken a world record by unwrapping over 20,000 Pokémon cards during a 24-hour livestream.
Participants from the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain teamed up to achieve the Guinness World Record for the longest unboxing livestream. Even Pikachu joined in the fun to celebrate when the livestream reached the 24-hour mark!
After the event, the cards were carefully placed in protective binders and will be donated to charities across Europe, including Barnardo’s UK, which supports children and families in need.
The Pokémon Trading Card Game, first released in 1996, has become a global phenomenon. Fans collect, trade, and use the cards to battle in friendly competitions. Each card’s value depends on factors like rarity, condition, and the Pokémon featured. Some cards are so valuable that they can be worth thousands of dollars.
Today, Pokémon card tournaments and world championships draw players from all over the globe, with exciting prizes on the line. Since the game’s creation, an astonishing 30 billion cards have been printed, making it one of the most popular collectibles in the world.
