Glad I could help. ![]()
I think you mean the corrected glossy Ivy Pikachu? That one, from a CoroCoro magazine lottery in 1998, indeed had just 2k copies given. And yes, I do have that one.
I’ve added it to my Pikachu collection back in 2021 (but I’m still missing the same glossy card with shifted artwork unfortunately):
The Illustrator Pikachu is usually a reference to the Pokémon Illustrator card, an illustration trophy card known as the most expensive Pokémon TCG card. (And no, I don’t have that trophy card, haha.
I’m not a millionaire. That card, and all the trophy cards, are the main reason why I never wanted to collect cameos for Pikachu.)
