@pichufan I found some information from the same forum (pokegym.net) regarding the number of participants for the West Coast Stadium Challenge. According to one of the forum staff members, the attendance numbers that was reported to them was:
East Coast Stadium Challenge: 132
West Coast Stadium Challenge: 115 (possibly 116 according to another member in the same thread)
South Coast Stadium Challenge: 97
There is a discrepancy for the South Coast Stadium Challenge (101 vs. 97) but your source sounds like they attended the south coast event so that number could be more accurate.
Interesting – so ~344 copies were distributed to players. I have to imagine the tournament organizers had more than that to give out, though. I think <1000 copies seems to be a safe assumption, unless I’m missing something.
TCG related items that I miss are the Glass Nationals Trofees. Each country receiving only 3 of each place.
IN the early days TPCI took over we had around 22-25 countries who had a Nationals. So 75 nr 1 trofee, 75 nr 2 and 75 nr3 when 25 countries did this tournament…
“The 2005 Gold Medal was only given out during Gym Final events in 2005 & 2006. This means there are only 42 of this card officially distributed (21 each year–7 Gym Finals across 3 age groups).” ( thanks for your thread @dreamtech )
@gaano , while I love the Unlimited Gold Stars myself and agree they are rare, I don’t think we have enough concrete numbers yet to add them, and “quantity PSA graded” is not the end-all-be-all for distribution… Umbreon play almost certainly lower distribution numbers. Without primary sources, I don’t feel comfortable labeling as <100 or <500. But they are great cards!
Does anyone know the distribution number of Victory Proof 1st/2nd/3rd place? Wondering if COVID has led to cancellation of tournaments and thus less copies distributed.
It did indeed lead to some canceled tournaments. Last I had checked was in the 20s for 1st and 2nd place. Depending on when they roll out the new Gen victory cards the Proofs could be the rarest modern trophies since Champion’s League 05-07
I added this list to my website Qwachansey.com under “Helpful Resources”. If you contributed to this project and would like to be credited / have your preferred SNS linked, please let me know so I can do so.
Hi all, does anyone know the distribution numbers for this year’s World’s Championship Festival promo? (Row 208). There were several new tournaments at World’s like Unite and I’m not sure of the numbers.
I’m trying to find distribution info on the JR Rally Meowth, and the Italian and German birthday pikachu cards. If anyone has more info about these cards or know a site that talks about them, I’d love to read up more on them. Thanks!
There are likely cards people have mentioned for me to add, I mentally made a note to, and then forgot. So if you’ve sent me something and is hasn’t been updated, let me know again, thanks for your patience.
