Our story

It started with Joel.

Kids should get to enjoy Pokémon. That’s where this started.

Joel had a run-in with a scalper. The shelves had been cleared, and the message was that Pokémon wasn’t for kids anymore. That’s part of why we started Code 3 TCG.

We don’t agree. Kids should get to open a pack, find a favorite card, and start a collection of their own.

We’re based in Virginia, and we’re building Code 3 TCG with that in mind. New collectors, longtime players, kids, and families are all welcome.
