Without more detail, it could also be Cardcaptor Sakura, but I know at least in the US that aired earlier than 2005.
I think this would have been in the U.K. About 2005. The show inovolved a series of children/ teenagers who had got cards that got them a creature that was sentient and had magical abilities. I think the main character was trying to collect all the cards? Seemed to be in anime sort of style. Any help?
