1996 for Japan, 1998 for the US. Basically, they've been around forever in gamer years.

Pokemon cards? Oh, those beauties came out in '96 in Japan. I remember trading my way to a Charizard. Good times.

Late to the party, but yeah, 1996 in Japan and 1998 in the US. Changed the game, literally and figuratively.
