Japanese & English Slowpoke, Slowbro, & Slowking Master Set List (with Cameos)

Hi all, I want to share my master set list of all printed English & Japanese Slowpoke, Slowbro, and Slowking cards. I figure this may be useful for the 2 other people in the world who want to collect all the silly pink friends. This post is very much inspired by the @JoshsOddCollection Oddish set list :slight_smile:

This list includes all print variants, including things like the 3rd print edition Australian Fossil copyright variant, as well as EX serial codes. I also personally consider Recall and Poke Maniac to be Slowpoke cards and not exactly Cameos, because Slowpoke is the main feature – but feel free to disagree with me on this.

If I’m missing anything, please let me know! I compiled the Japanese set list quite recently, so it’s entirely possible I missed something.

Great list! It’s nice to see a fellow Slowpoke evo line collector! Skimming through, I only noticed two missing variants (that I’m aware of). The Domino’s pizza 028/L-P Slowpoke had two print runs; the “たね” text in the first attack is formatted differently depending on whether it was released with the Slowbro or Slowking promo.

The second variant is much more minor (you may not even consider it a proper “variation”), and one I’ve had a good deal of trouble identifying from online listings. Vending Series 3 also had two print runs: a dark print and a light print. Due to differences in scan saturation and other similar factors, it can be pretty difficult to differentiate between the two online, but the difference should be pretty noticeable side-by-side, more so than the standard deviations in print color of any set.

Hope this helps!

(I learned of the Vending Series 3 variants from Quuador’s collection thread here, which provides a great example, and the Domino’s variants are noted on the card’s Bulbapedia page).

That is SO COOL about the Domino’s slowpoke! And awesome to learn about the vending series print difference as well. Will add both to the list, thanks so much. And great to meet another Slow fan!!!

Wasn’t even aware of that Dominos promo difference. I think I have seen it mention there are two versions before on Bulbapedia, but I didn’t knew the difference was so easily noticeable. :slight_smile:

Credit where credit is due, I myself learned it from @gemmintpokemon from this video of his. :slight_smile:

Here a screenshot of the Slowbro:

It’s indeed not as noticeable on this Slowbro as it is on the Ooyama’s Pikachu, so good luck with the online auction pictures indeed. :pensive_face:

Also one question:

There should only be three different non-holo codes for the English set. :thinking: The code ending in GG3 is the code the Reverse Holofoil card has. I don’t think there is a non-holo Slowpoke with that code.
But if there is, I’d love to see it, so if you could share a picture of it please do. :slight_smile:

@slowqueen @Quuador

When I bought my english EX FRLG 1-103/112 regular+reverse sets the seller included lots of duplicates with different codes, just looked through Slowpokes and there was one which was missing from english list, 92M-EUX-G7Z.

Happy hunting! :slight_smile:

I’m pretty sure the G72 in the list is just a typo and supposed to be the G7Z you have. The list contained more typos, which is not too surprising since it was mostly made based on online pictures.
But if you also have a G72 as well as the G7Z you’ve showed, that changes things completely. :thinking:

Anyway, I was mostly referring to the non-holo GG3 code in slowqueen’s list, since that code is only used for the Reverse Holofoil a.f.a.i.k. :slight_smile:

@Quuador

Couldn’t find a copy with G72 marking and I’m starting to think you’re right saying it’s a typo. G72 is also mentioned in this list while missing G7Z that appears in Slowpoke’s example picture.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure it’s a typo in @tonysandlin’s Excel, and @pfm used that Excel as reference when he made the Efour article/thread, hence why both have the same typo.

Could you both correct this typo in your thread/Excel, Scott and Eric? :slight_smile: (TL;DR: English EX FireRed & LeafGreen 80/112 Slowpoke code -G72 should be -G7Z instead. :person_shrugging: )

You are correct on both counts, -G72 is a typo on the correct code which @Taigataipan pointed out is -G7Z. And, I’d accidentally marked the reverse holo serial code as a non-holo code. Fixed both of these things in the list, thank you!

If it was just your thread, I might have just corrected the typo myself as a moderator. But since it was both the thread and the Excel, I figured I’d let you both do the honors. :wink: Lmk if you want me to simply edit it myself next time to save you the trouble (iff another error is discovered with the codes that is).

Awesome collection @slowqueen!
I love the domino’s promo line in Japanese, but recently sold my set to upgrade to a set in better condition. When I was checking comps I found on tcgfish that the slowpoke promo is listed as having a holo variant, however I’ve never seen the holo version in the tall grass before. Seeing that you are the resident slowpoke master I was curious, have you hear about this variation before, or it’s release history?

Also I found a listing for the set that comes with the original domino’s booklet. I was curious because the cover displays the 3 starters but doesn’t include those cards. @Frosty.Puppy do you think this might be a clue to the unlimited LP starter distribution? I read the booklet front and back covers but it doesn’t mention the starter cards, and the 1st edition mark is visible on the chikorita card.

Hmm this is super interesting. I always thought that the Slowpoke was a non-holo while the Slowbro and the Slowking were the holo cards. I also double checked mine and it is just a non-holo card. This is new info for when when you said that there is a holo variant also listed.

As far as I know, this promo campaign was done in 2 batches.

Batch 1 (Oct 26th to Dec 10th) included Slowpoke and Slowbro as the promo cards, with the Slowbro being in front of the cellophane packet that the cards were included in.

Batch 2 (Dec 11th to Jan 14th) included Slowking and Slowpoke as the promo cards with the Slowking being in front of the cellophane packet.

Did Slowpoke have a variant between the 2 releases? Since Slowpoke is the common card between the two batches however, dates were consecutive, 10th and 11 December. So, to me it makes no sense to change the type of promo card. Not sure if there is a misclassification calling the card a holo but probably @slowqueen would have a better idea.

Thanks for the new info.

Cheers!

Hmm, very interesting @BANKS ! As far as I’ve been able to tell there is no holo variant for the Domino’s Slowpoke, with Slowbro and Slowking as holo-only, but I would be thrilled to be proven wrong here.

Same here, looks like there is a rare variant or PSA has mislabeled 18 slabs. I’m leaning towards the latter because PSA has a history of mislabeling LP era cards i.e. Pichu L1 unlimited, Slowbro L1 unlimited.

Interesting! Found one of the slabs labeled as holo and it doesn’t look particularly holographic to my eye. I’ll keep an eye out though just in case!

There are definitely two variants of the Slowpoke Domino’s promo as @KingSlowpoke pointed out, having to do with the bolding on the “たね” text. But I believe both are non-holo.

If we were to go by the release dates of L1, Promo batches of Slowpoke and L2 then I think it’ll look something like this, with mrbubbles info on the batch dates.

  • L1 - Japan October 9th 2009
  • Batch 1 - Japan October 26th-December 10th 2009
  • Dominos Leaflet - December 11th 2009-Mid January 2010
  • Batch 2 - Japan December 11th 2009-January 14th 2010
  • L2 - Japan February 11th 2010

As we can see the Slowpoke promo batches were indeed in between the release of L1 and L2. I’d unfortunately draw the line at it was happenstance that it slotted into this time frame as opposed to anything related to the release of L1 unlimited. I’d imagine they used the L1 starters on the cover as it was the newest set that had just been released 2 weeks prior.

You never know though however, I like your gumption!
