Thirty dedicated Pokémon enthusiasts and content creators have set a Guinness World Record for the longest unboxing livestream, opening over 20,000 trading cards during a 24-hour event.
Participants from the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain joined forces to achieve the feat, celebrating their shared passion for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Even Pikachu made a special appearance to mark the occasion.
The cards from the livestream will be sorted into protective binders and donated to charities across Europe, including the children’s charity Barnardo’s in the UK. The initiative adds a charitable twist to the record-breaking event, spreading joy to fans and those in need.
Since its introduction in 1996, the Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) has become a global phenomenon, allowing fans to collect, trade, and battle using Pokémon-themed cards.
The value of these cards depends on factors such as rarity, condition, and character. Competitive tournaments, including a world championship, continue to draw players from around the globe.
With over 30 billion cards printed since the TCG’s launch, Pokémon remains a cornerstone of gaming culture, inspiring events like this livestream and uniting fans worldwide through their love for the franchise.
