@papafrankgod , would you mind to elaborate what you mean by “featuring”?

with more than 1k post I am sure you know more than I do… but as fare as I know, there were only 5 magazines (link) and I could provide the covers of Vol. 3, 4 and 5, but non of them had the cards you mentioned. Weren’t these cards only available through the Pokémon Card Fan Club where players had to earn Points to get the cards (See Eevee)?

best regards

Hey Cracker, thanks for your response. No I am not an expert on Pokemon media releases or magazines. My question is, if there is any book or flyer or advertising where the three cards appear, as the only info I have on the subject is that at first only Eevee and Porygon were featured along with an exclusive playmat. Later on they added the Magikarp to that promotion and that was the reason it is more rare or scarce, it was available for a shorter period of time. I would love to see those magazines and translate what’s written on those pages. Hope it’s more clear now!

@papafrankgod , got it.

A few weeks ago I also searched for full content scans of these books (they seem to be very informative and have funny illustrations), I even made someone an offer :wink:. What I found was this YouTuber, who shows every page, but I did not see those cards. But maybe I missed something, because I cannot understand or read a single word.

This does not really give you an new information, other than that these books seems to have no answers to your questions. It makes also sense, the event was 2000-2002 the last magazine was published 1998

PS: if you find something new let me know, in your reply was already stuff that was new to me

@papafrankgod ,see my previous post (found two more), I bet you can find such a page in almost every magazine between 2000-2002, but what they say idk, I cannot read this :wink:

Here’s the page from volume 5. The other issues also have similar ads and some have postcards for you to fill out to send in and get points.

“By the way, regarding Hikaru Magikarp of Trainers Promo , since it was a long time after these two pieces were added to the prize lineup, only the neo version exists from the beginning”

Very interesting piece of history you found there with the Evvee and Porygon prototypes, I really enjoyed reading it, thank you a lot!!!
