==Twelfth Movie Illustration Contest==
==Pokémon Card Design Contest==
In 2009, [[CoroCoro]] and other magazines held an Illustration contest to design the artwork on {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Notched-ear Pichu M|9}} and {{TCG ID|DPt-P Promo|Arceus|41}}. This contest was restricted to Japan-only residents. Entries were accepted via CoroCoro, Shogakukan, and Pokémonfan Magazines, with each magazine having different entry forms for different Pokémon.
In 2009, [[Shōgakukan]] held the '''Pokémon Card Design Contest''' through many of their publications. Entrants were requested to design the artwork for {{TCG ID|Movie Random Pack Promo|Notched-ear Pichu M|9}} and {{TCG ID|DPt-P Promo|Arceus|41}}. Aside from two magazines that held contests for original drawings, each one provided an outline of the requested Pokémon drawn by professional illustartors (whose artwork were also featured on the cards in the {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}}). This contest was restricted to Japan-only residents and is so far the largest to be held in the history of the TCG.
