is there a insert featuring each neo pack art? the shining mew has neo one too
lol I haven’t seen this before!, it looks so cool, just want to rip it open! but know you shouldn’t >.<
Pretty sure it’s the Smoochum from Dec 2000 Coro Coro magazine
@avalanche1313 are you sure it isn’t wooper?
Definitely not Wooper, that one came in Jan 2000 on the old paste board.
Could it be one of the Jumbos?
I’ll admit, I don’t know how these were sealed but my guess is that it could be the 2001 Crystal Tower’s Entei.
The only other cards I know that came out from Coro Coro in 2001 are Entei, Ho-oh, Sneasel, Shiny Mew, Celebi, and Rapidash.
the shining mew comes in a similar package. the front has and image of mew and the reverse is the artwork from the neo 4 expansion. Perhaps the card sealed in this mystery insert features the set expansion stamp from its respective neo set?
What’s the release date of the magazine?
Not knowing what is in there would drive me crazy. I would of ripped it open a long time ago. Also it is very nice where do u find it?
not mine, just a photo i found. credits added to op
I have to find the original page i found the photos. it was some Japanese blog or something. I can always remove the images if any issues arise. Sowwwwy
Let’s just say it’s an illustrator card.
I agree with avalanche1313
Moreover, the Smoochum was not to peel because it is not a glossy card.
Why 2000, though, when it says 2001? I’m rather ignorant of sealed Coro Coro promos, so I’m curious as to what draws you guys to this conclusion.
Which is why it gave me the idea that it could be the Entei. The Shining Mew has Mew on the sealed version and the Clefa has the picture of Clefa on the sealed version.
It wouldn’t make sense to me to expect a card that’s being promo’d to have a cover like that and NOT have at least one of the Pokemon on it.
But I could be completely wrong here.
@azulryu The Cleffa was a card to peel, there was not a sealed version (so a non-glossy version).
The Smoochum was released in december 2000.
I can’t read japanese, but I think the text with “2001” is just an announcement of the Neo Revelation expansion which was released later in january 2001.
Ah, gotcha. I was running on the assumption that the 2001 was related to what was inside.
Perhaps we should tag someone who can read Japanese to see if it says the card’s name anywhere. @japanime, what do you think?
I saw this listing on YJ and was curious also. I was thinking it might be the jumbo Crystal Tower Entei maybe?
It says Happy New Years
CoroCoro
Uhh let me see…
Nothing about a Pokemon’s name on this thing.
