Cards that have images of Wailord or Wailmer in them?

Hello!

I love whales so been trying to get ahold of as many cards as I can that have Wailmer and Wailord on them. I’ve been able to get all the ones from Bulbapedia but I was hoping to grow my collection to cards that have images of Wailord and Wailmer in them.

As an example, Wailmer is pictured in the 2013 Worlds Champion Festival card.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Wail met, kind sir!

There’s Pikachu (Japanese) 153/PCG-P - Promo which is this guy:

I’m sure @quuador will be of more help to you. He’s really amazing at this sort of thing!

@melchior, @quuador,

Thank you both very kindly. Quuador’s Magikarp list I found while lurking being before a member is absolutely legendary.

I don’t know of its just incredible research skills, memory or both? :blush:

Both I guess. A few years ago it was mainly research, but now that I’ve made quite a lot of lists, I remember at least some things that keep coming back.

When I saw this question I immediately thought of the POP5 Pikachu and Captain Pikachu Jumbo. :blush:
The one you mentioned and the Tropical Tidal Wave were found after that.

Greetz,

Quuador knows every Pokémon TCG card by heart. He’s one of only 2 Pokémon savants known to exist in the world and the only one living in Europe. J/k. He’s just very meticulous at what he does and he puts a lot of effort into the hobby. We’re grateful to have him here on E4.

@melchior, @quuador,

I am just glad there isn’t a Snap card or Art Academy, or Matchprint for these two Pokemon. LOL

Unlike playing TCG… old cards don’t go out of rotation and get forgotten!

Worth noting that this isn’t a Japanese exclusive. It was released in English as part of POP Series 5:

^ and the POP 5 card also has a holo version. And an error version where the backside is upside down

You’re right, it doesn’t. Here are all the available versions:

  • English Holo with Upside Down back
  • English Holo with corrected back (actually harder to find and worth more)
  • English non-Holo
  • Japanese 153/PCG-P non-Holo promo
  • German non-Holo
  • Italian non-Holo

And I personally also have both English holos (with upside down and corrected back) with Holo Bleed, but those I consider errors.

PS: I’ve heard rumors about French POP5 cards once, but I’ve never seen any ever, so I doubt they exist.

Greetz,
Quuador

Any interest in a full holo that’s supposed to be reverse holo Wailord from Guardians Rising? Very willing to trade it to a Wailord enthusiast.
