ThatPikachuGuy's Pikachu Card Collection

Collecting
21

I don’t see any missing, except for:

  1. Art Academy you’ve excluded on purpose
  2. Japanese released English cards (grey stamp Glossy Ivy Pikachu promo, and perhaps Japanese Yellow Cheeks Shadowless Pikachu)
  3. The current one upcoming release (of course)

Awesome collection! :slight_smile:

I’ve send you a chat-PM regarding this one. :slight_smile: Spotted some of them available for sale (for very varying qualities/prices..)

Thank you!

I did decide to intentionally omit the Japanese released English cards as well as they didn’t feel like they fit - and I appreciate the help with the 035 promo, hopefully I can get a decent copy!

Out of curiosity though: why omit just the English cards exclusively released in Japan? Because it is glossy or the different font? Because that non-holo 035 for example is a Swedish exclusive; the Pokémon Day stamped HGSS, POP6, and POP9 were exclusively released in The Netherlands; the Asian stamped 101 SVP promo, non-stamped 190 SVP promo, and upcoming non-stamped 225 SVP promo are all exclusive to Singapore, Malaysia, The Philippines, and Hong Kong. :man_shrugging:

Btw, I’m not saying you should change your collection goals or anything, everyone can collect however and whatever they want. I’m just curious why you’ve excluded them. :slight_smile:

Np, best of luck.

I guess it was a pretty arbitrary decision. I didn’t leave them out because they were non-US releases, I like a lot of the other examples you mentioned because of their unique releases.

I think I just decided a long time ago that they were not visually different enough to me to justify giving them a slot, especially with Base Set already having so many similar variants taking up a full page

I might be a little out of the loop on current/upcoming releases :sweat_smile: which card were you referencing here?

Haven’t seen a better picture yet, and I’m also not sure when it will release, but the 225 promo with League logo in the description, but without the WINNER-stamp, which will release in Asian countries (Malaysia; Singapore; The Philippines; Hong Kong), just like the Asian-released versions of the 101 and 190 Pikachu promos.

Are you not in the Pikachu Collectors Worldwide Discord group?

Anyway, apparently they’ve made a mistake when they posted this picture on Facebook and you can take it off your list. It’s confirmed that the Pikachu promo that was given out during the GBL (GO Battle League) is the one with World Championship 2025 stamp in the bottom-right of the artwork, like we got at USA Pokémon Leagues. Someone from Singapore also showed the Pikachu they received at events and it was that same version, and the suppliers for Singapore should be the same for the Philippines and Malaysia. So it seems to have been a false alarm.
Sorry for the lack of update here about it.
PS: I’ll send you an invite to the Pikachu Collectors Worldwide Discord group through PM in a moment. :slight_smile:
