Hi everyone!  
I made a webpage to document all information on the pokemon stamps released by Shogakukan.  
These stamp sheets are some of my favourite vintage pokemon items to collect but i noticed it is very difficult to find info on them. I put in a lot of effort to make a nice overview on this webpage. I hope you enjoy!

Okay… So I knew you were recently working on this but I had NO idea you were THIS close to having it completed. Wonderful resource! Also showed some of the 2002 ones I didn’t know existed, so thank you for giving me new things to hunt down! Fascinating info regarding the membership cards - I had always wondered why some of the loose sheets I got had the bottom portion cut out in the middle.

By chance do you plan to add in photos of the back/front covers of the magazines each set was featured in? And how complete is this? I only noticed you missing the Gym Leaders sheet but don’t know enough about them as a whole to know what else you might be missing.

Thank you again, @pokegasm!

Thanks for the appreciation! you’re very welcome and i’m glad this can be useful to you!  
Do you have a picture of the gym leader sheets you think i’m missing? or a description of them? I’m not sure which ones you’re referring to. I would love to add them if i forgot about them.

I would also like to add more specific information about all releases and pictures of their magazines would be nice. I personally don’t collect the whole magazines so that might be something for the far future. Other than maybe some of the mini gum sheets i don’t think i’m missing any (that i know).

I do! It actually comes from the same 1998 Poster you mentioned from your “extras” section:

And sorry, I meant Elite 4, not Gym Leaders. Here’s my picture (feel free to use it if you’d like):

Dude this is amazing! Thanks so much, this is incredibly helpful for all of us who collect the stamps, and has helped me remember a few I am missing!

Cheers, @pokegasm!

In the late 1990s, Shogakukan also produced enamel pins based on the postage stamps. This is the brochure for the pins and related items.

Thanks! but the elite four sheet is definitely in there already 😊 Have a look under “1997” (general, not one of the '97 sets).

Thank you! I actually have quite a few of these but i didn’t put them in yet because they’re technically not stamps 😊  
But eventually i do want to add pictures of all different packs they came in under the “extra” section perhaps.

@pokegasm, ah I see. I didn’t realize you could click on the years themselves if they had a drop down menu. Thanks for the clarification!

Yes, I figured that was the case. If you do add the pins, the “extra” section is definitely the place I’d expect to find them.
