<\/span>Card Details<\/span><\/h2>\n

This card for the Nintendo e-Reader<\/strong> was first shown off in Japan at Nintendo’s Shoshinkai<\/strong> (often called Spaceworld) show, which occured from August 24th-26th, 2001. It was one of the cards which demonstrated the functionality of the e-Reader and is part of a collective sample set of ten cards featuring other Pok\u00e9mon: Spearow<\/strong>, Spearow (again), Clefairy<\/strong>, Psyduck<\/strong>, Dratini<\/strong>, Oddish<\/strong>, Abra<\/strong>, Caterpie<\/strong>, Pikachu<\/strong> and Wartortle<\/strong>. None of these cards were ever intended to make it into the hands of the public in their showcased form. This IGN article<\/a> from back then has more details.<\/p>\n

These Sample cards have both a short strip<\/strong> and a long strip<\/strong> dot code information as well as featuring some unique artwork and card IDs. These differ to their counterparts that were later released to the public via the “Base Expansion Pack<\/strong>” (Japan) or “Expedition Base Set<\/strong>” (International). This Pikachu card specifically features the ID R-09<\/strong>, and the long strip dot code is to be scanned with the Sample Oddish card (ID R-06<\/strong>) for further content. The short strip information can be scanned to display Pokedex<\/strong> information about Pikachu.<\/p>\n

All credits for this particular release go to spika7777777<\/strong>, who graciously allowed us to preserve his copy of the card and worked to verify the dot code information. An additional special thanks goes to Qwachansey<\/strong> for putting us in touch, and endrift<\/strong> for helping with dot code extraction.<\/p>\n
