As the title suggests, I have a question on the particular cards that are so elusive and seldom spoke of, there aren’t even pictures of them floating around. To my knowledge, the only ones I have never been able to find pictures of are the 2004 No. 1 Trainer, 2001 Summer/Spring Battle Road No. 1 Trainers (the ones with the picture of the winner and either Ho-Oh or Lugia in the background), and certain personalized 2002 Female Trainer cards from the Battle road tournaments held in different, corresponding prefectures. My main question is what are the other cards that do not have pics floating around, and whether or not the ones I have already listed do, in fact, have pictures, and im just not a professional sleuth. ---

Maybe some languages of the non-Japanese VS series? Like Dutch (not sure if they were made in Dutch)? ---

> [@poketrade](#): > > Maybe some languages of the non-Japanese VS series? > Like Dutch (not sure if they were made in Dutch)? I wish this set was made in Dutch! Having just the first 3 sets in Dutch is nice from a completionists PoV, but the VS cards are amazing! ---

Dunno if that counts since it’s not even clear if these cards count as counterfeit or actually licensed, but a lot of the funskool cards don’t have any pictures online. ---

> [@anon83099482](#): > > There’s a few of the Art Academy cards have never had pictures of the actual cards ever made available. Yeah, good point. Reference pictures of them are on Bulbapedia, but I wonder if the actual cards will ever pop up. ---

I have not seen photographic evidence of the Zapdos EX and Moltres EX from ex Fire Red & Leaf Green that are missing the shard holographic effect. Here is the Articuno equivalent of the trio that has been active for several months, but I can’t seem to find any photos of the others: [www.ebay.com/itm/2004-Pokemon-card-EX-Fire-Red-Leaf-Green-Aritcuno-EX-SR-114-112-Error-Misprint-/282530709171](https://www.ebay.com/itm/2004-Pokemon-card-EX-Fire-Red-Leaf-Green-Aritcuno-EX-SR-114-112-Error-Misprint-/282530709171) ---

That card on the right is called the finalist trophy of the 2002 events. The battle roads yielded the no. 1/2/3 trainers whereas in the final event the best players had their photo printed on the card.
