Could someone reupload the Pokemon Card Trainer Magazines Volumes 2– 21? All of them except for volume 1 are dead links.

By popular demand I’ve uploaded the pdf files I have to a drive folder (Including Trainers Magazines from main series)

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1NLN44XMNsVNwaGeBuOuanJLWIzdbHqKM?usp=drive_link

As a bonus, I also included the “Pokémon Card GB” manga (translated to English).
Someone shared me this years ago, so now I wanted to share it …

If for any reasons something happens to the folder (such as the files are taken down), just @ me … I’ll reupload it … At the end of the day, these files are still going to be in my laptop …

Hope you all find this as useful …

:meowth:

Edit:

  • I’ll put more files in the drive when I have time … I’ve planned to upload the Machop Pokémon Tales book (I have it in my collection. I’ve taken photos to it months ago and I’ll create a pdf soon)
  • If someone knows how to scan books without destroying them, let me know … Might be interesting scanning some books I currently have physically such as the “Super Mario Advance 2 Special Guide”

“Let’s Make Pizza, Machop” Pokémon Tales book :jp: have been uploaded to the Drive (link above) as a pdf file. This book is the number 36 of the 48 books from the Japanese main series. In this story, Machop & friends have to prepare a Pizza … What could go wrong? …

This book hasn’t been released in English (it’s Japanese exclusive). Artwork have been illustrated by Yuka Morii (in fact, this and the Horsea book were her first works for Pokémon before doing Pokémon TCG artworks)

This book is part of my personal collection. I’ve taken photos to it some months ago.
And if you’re wondering, no … the book hasn’t been destroyed. It’s still in great conditions.

or if you just want to see the images without downloading the pdf file, you can check my Twitter thread where I posted the whole book.

I also have some other Pokémon Tales books such as “Transforming Ditto” that I might upload soon …

Hope you all like this …

This is evidence amongst much much misleading information on the subject of 1997 corocoro surfing pikachu and it’s origins. This is a corocoro magazine that has the instructions written right to left on the bottom of how to obtain the pikachu which there is only 1 copy of. This document helped prove that the mt fuji surfing pikachu was indeed the first copy of the tcg promos in 1997. The surfing pikachu we all knew and loved that was so iconic was a mystery to some until now 22 years later with this image of the SEPTEMBER corocoro magazine saying, “the card will be available in october corocoro bessatsu” which would only occur once every month that was labeled an even numbered month as a special edition magazine.

Hi!!! I have a Drive where I’ve reuploaded everything … (you can find a link some post above)
I’ve got some more content to upload (from both personal collection & other resources)

I still have to work editing everything and converting them into pdf files … I’ll upload them in the future to the Drive …

Btw, if something happens to the Drive (such as taken down, don’t let you download anything, etc), just let me know … :slight_smile:

Thanks so much! Do you have trainer’s magazine vol 15 specifically? There’s a map of Aquapolis/Skyridge in that volume i need

I am pretty sure @dromanyte has a high quality scan, but it looks like the PDF link in the original post is broken. In the meantime, I took a photo for you from my copy (I believe this is what you’re looking for?) :slight_smile:
