When did they stop selling first edition pokemon cards?

First edition Pokémon cards were primarily produced and sold during the initial launch of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 1999. The first edition print runs were relatively limited, and once those cards were sold out, they were no longer produced. As a result, the first edition cards became scarce and are now highly sought after by collectors. The exact end of sales for first edition cards varies by specific card and region, but general availability diminished by the early 2000s.
