Unlike other GB Promotional cards, these were hidden inside a paper pack, forcing players to rip it open to add these two "dark" cards to their collection
Seventeen years and 570 Pokemon later and that same set is making a bigger comeback than Ash versus Lieutenant Surgemaybe
While every animal had its fans, there was always an animal players would have preferred instead
You don't know joy until you've seen a nineties kid rip open a foil pack of Pokmon cards
