A father has gone viral for investing $10k worth of Pokémon time capsule to surprise his daughter on her 18th birthday in 2037.

By meticulously sealing away rare booster boxes and vintage cards today, he is creating a high-stakes treasure trove for the future.

In his caption, he wrote, “I decided to pull some of my favorite items today and hide them in the dark for the next 12 years.”

“Hope my daughter still loves Pokémon when she turns 18! It will also be super cool to unbury this.”

Pokémon was invented by Satoshi Tajiri, founder of Game Freak, and debuted on the Game Boy in 1996.

This Japanese franchise centers on humans catching and training creatures with special powers, evolving from a simple role-playing game into a global cultural phenomenon.

The dedicated dad predicts this impressive investment could be worth $25,000 by 2037.

Whether it remains a valuable financial asset or simply a box of nostalgic cardboard, this viral story highlights a parent’s unique way of planning for his daughter’s magical future.
