THE POKEMON CRAZE AT COLLECTOR'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY

[D. MARQUIS]

A Long Long Time Ago....In a Mall Far...Far away (If you were commuting from Los Angeles lol)There were a Collective of Characters....Literally. Yes of course we know of the HUMAN CHARACTERS that staffed COLLECTORS GUIDE TO THE GALAXY, but what about the Rage that surrounded the characters of POKEMON?

I came across this video on YOUTUBE and was pretty wowed! This video was shot while the store was still in its early Design Phases(we were still putting everything in order-but that did not stop the craziness that was Pokemon!

**IN CASE YOU WERE WONDERING ON TODAY'S MARKET THIS IS WHAT A "CHARIZARD" POKÉMON CARD WILL COST YOU:

Pokemon - Charizard (11/108) - XY Evolutions - Reverse Holo

Those of you that were a part of this phase of CCG, you'll see some familiar faces especially our very own"CARD GUY" BRET GINSBERG- who if you didn't know was an integral part of CGG's history from the very beginning. So check out and enjoy the vid. Big Props to all of us who were a part of this magical ride (short lived as it was)-at least we got some great memories out of it.

And how could we forget our "Cute and Cuddly" Pokemon Trainer "ZTORM" or as the staffers referred to him as "Z-TRON"! Enjoy! ( REST IN PEACE BRO)

CGG PLAYED HOST TO AN AMAZING CELEBRITY POKÉMON TOURNAMENT WHICH PITTED LOCAL CHILDREN TO PLAY AGAINST  CHILD CELEBRITY  STARS.

THIS PROVED TO BE OUR BIGGEST EVENT HELD AT CGG AND THE SHOP WAS  BEYOND CAPACITY.

Celebrity Participants at our Awesome Pokemon Tournament

CELEBS LIKE ERNIE HUDSON ( BELOW) WERE PRESENT WHICH ADDED TO THE GREATNESS OF THIS EVENT.

ALMOST ALL OF OUR STAFF WERE POKÉMON ENTHUSIASTS- SO YOU'LL SEE SOME FAMILIAR FACES AS YOU BROWSE THRU THESE!

* DID YOU KNOW THAT MICHELLE PINCUS-ONE OF OUR LONGTIME STAFFERS AND RESIDENT CGG POKEMON TRAINER WAS ALSO OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED BY NINTENDO? POKEMON WAS SERIOUS BUSINESS AT CGG!
