Just need the kanto starters for my ecard promo set, there is a psa 10 set on ebay uk going cheap currently with 4hrs left but I can’t afford it at this moment in time :slightly_frowning_face: is that like the paperwork that came with them at the top? Love that badge too!

Do not worry, you will find them another time.
If I have learning anything with collecting Pokémon cards it is that you have to be patient.

Yes, the two papers were with the Jotho starters when I purchased them.

I would very much like the paperwork too, I’m learning patience… slowly. It just always seems that I go through my poke budget waaay to fast and then loads of things I want come up!

Like almost all my japanese cards, I found them on YJA (fortunately for me, they were unnoticed).

After some researches, there also exist a notebook with pencils, trainers cardcase and other cool stuff.

Cards from the 2010 Pokémon Card Design Contest.
They have a lot of charm and I love the gold stamp on black background.
Does anyone know if it is possible to find the two chosen entry prints (Zorua and Zoroark) ?



Pikachu and Jigglypuff still in their CoroCoro Comic magazine (November 1996).


Cool badges with the Johto gym leaders !
I do not have information on their origin but there is a page with them in the Trainers magazine Vol.12.
I have made a scan of the page, so if anyone can read japanese and help me … :blush:

Thanks :blush:
I like sealed stuff, I am used to have sealed items in duplicate so I can keep one sealed and open the other.

Did you pick up one of those low-priced illustration sets that the dude was churning out on YJ by chance?
Beautiful set. Probably should have bought myself one. >.>

Yes, moreover I submitted the link twice on the GAT: first after purchasing one set, a second time after receiving my cards :blush:
It was a good deal because all the cards were mint.

Nice checklists of the Vending Machine series :

They are sort of flyers (close to the A4 size) from the CoroCoro magazine.
