Are these Pichus from the same set?

I’ve recently stumbled upon a sold Japanese auction listing for a variety of Pichu cards. Included were these 3:

The 1st edition card on the left is from the Rampardos the Attacker half deck, which, thanks to Bulbapedia, looked like this when new:

Note the 1st Edition stamp in the bottom left of the Rampardos card the set reveals.
Until now I wasn’t aware unlimited variants of this card existed. I also find it a bit odd that the seller of this Pichu listing would have 2 unlimited ones if it only comes from the half deck.

Googling a bit hasn’t really helped. The only cards from this set I can find all have the 1st edition stamp, however TCG Republic lists 5 cards from this set for sale and the only one which doesn’t have a 1st edition stamp here is the Pichu card:

Was this unlimited version of the Pichu card from the Rampardos the Attacker half deck, or was it acquired some other way?

The Rampardos the Attacker deck does exist in unlimited edition. I don’t have a picture of the Pichu, but I do have both the 1st and unlimited edition Pikachu from that same Deck. Here scans of both from my collection:

Here a more definitive prove regarding the UED Pichu. :blush: Was browsing through my binders to see if I had the blue-eyed Pichu already or not, and noticed I have this card in both 1st ed. and UED:


I get Pichus and Raichus for free or in bulks all the time when I order Pikachus, lol… Probably have like 40+ Pichus and 65+ Raichus by now, and I’m not even collecting them. :laughing:
