I know exactly where all my Pokemon cards are...in a shoebox. Except for the ones that are in a (falling apart) Pokemon folder. It's all the spares that are in the shoebox. I can't remember all my shinys, so I'll go fetch the folder and showbox and tell....
- Venusaur
- Charizard (yay!)
- Nidoking
- Clefairy
- Clefable
- Ninetales
- Poliwrath
- Machamp (1st edition)
- Hitmonchan
- Kangaskhan
- Pinsir
- Gyrados
- Vaporeon
- Zapdos
- Mewtwo
I also have a promo Dragonite, from the first movie. I also have the Pikachu World Collection, in its own special folder thingy that it came in. Don't know how long they sold them for or how rare it is, I just thought it was cool. The world collection has:
- Birthday Surprise Pikachu (in English)
- Flying Pikachu (I think it's in German)
- Jungle Pikachu (I have no idea what language this on is in - it isn't the standard jungle pikachu, the backgroun is different)
- Thundershock Pikachu (Again, no idea as to the language - this one looks like a screenie from the original N64 Stadium)
- Jungle Pikachu (This is either Chinese or Japanese)
- Leaping Pikachu (No idea)
- Jungle Pikachu (no idea - and it's a different one again)
- Surfing Pikachu (again...no idea)
- Normal Pikachu (Either Chinese or Japanese)
Those aren't the names for them, that's just how I describe them. All of the cards have a gold-coloured embossed Pikachu tail on them, right next to the stats bar under the pictures. Shows that they're world collection, I guess.
And lo and behold, in my shoebox I found my 10th anniversary tour across Australia lanyard thingy. I was one of the 128 Video Game Championships entrants...number 63. I made it down to the final 32 before I was beaten

It was funny...I got there about three quarters of an hour before the tour was due to open. Just before it opened, I wouldn't have been surprised if the line for it wasn't reaching to the entrance of the shopping complex. What I found wonderful about it was that the vast majority of people there were my age and older (17 and up). In other words, folks who'd been there from the start, like me ^_^ It was funny - while people were battling they were running around with a mic asking random questions. When I was in one of my battles on the biggest screen they had in the place (a battle I won, btw), they asked me what my favourite Pokemon was. When I responded (it's Persian), I heard a lot of little kids around muttering to each other about how gay a favourite Pokemon Persian is. I laughed at them, since Persian's been my favourite since before some of them were born...
And the tour for Diamond and Pearl is coming to Australia late this month, so I'm gonna be there. And I'm gonna enter in the tournament, and I'll try to win again ^_^ I wonder if I should wear my red contacts and freak out the little kids...
