Oh heyyy!
This is my first time posting here aaa. I'm a pokemon collector!I also play the games and I collect a bit of everything!
My favorite pokemon is Houndour and I've managed to get all the cards of it and houndoom, All 3 of the plushies (If the mirage counts as an official one because it was made when pokemon was giving there license out to about everyone back when they were made in the pokemania days) and almost all the figures! I'll work on getting the Houndoom stuuff eventually (I like houndour more than houndoom) \

Welcome to the club! Those plushes are adorable, and I agree, Houndour is one of my favorite Dark types.
Also, my father told me that my cards aren't in good condition, so you're probably right about them being worth a dollar at the most, if even that. I'm not going to sell them anytime soon though, the shop is closed on Sundays and Mondays, so I'll have to wait, but based on the reviews I've seen, the shop is reasonable on pricing old cards.

I hate to tell you this but those are very much fake so I'd get a return going. Here's what the legit GBA carts look like:
https://chieftain20.wordpress.com/2014/ ... mon-games/I've gotten a few very cheap booties in hopes of finding a gem like CandyEvie's
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsaAQ5Ztefgbut if you don't have something that poorly mistranslated and brilliant they're truly not worth keeping, especially since most don't even have the capability to save
I know that they are most likely bootleg, The reason that i didn't have a real problem with that is because the only place that ships to me is ebay, and 85% of ebays gba products are bootleg so I wont pay eighty bucks for a game that someone claims is authentic.
The only games that I would know for sure are 99% legit without actually seeing them would be factory sealed games that cost 300$ and even that can be faked...
What is important to me is getting a decent gaming experience out of them, so if they save and are passably translated, I'm good. If not, I will return them.
But you know what? They might be authentic. I don't know, I'll take what I can get.

As long as you know what you're getting into but I'd play them A LOT during the warranty to make sure they do save and don't corrupt after a while. And most preowned gba ones are only around $20-25. If you want I could snoop around ebay to find ones I'm sure are legit under $30, I have all 5 with me as a frame of reference
SPEAKING OF BOOTLEGS
I recently found this absolute beaut at a Gamestop of all places. The employee that must've bought it wouldn't let it go for less than $15 but the other guy workin' there talked some sense

Never seen another like it but I'm sure they are out there. This one says 'Ninfendo' on the back
