In late 1997, [[CoroCoro]] held an Illustration contest, in which the top illustrators had their artwork featured as one of the {{TCG|Vending Machine cards}}. These winners were not only awarded by having their art feature on real Pokémon cards, they also received the coveted {{TCG ID|CoroCoro|Pokémon Illustrator|promo}} card.

==2009 Pokémon Card Design Contest==
In 2009, [[Shōgakukan]] held the Pokémon Card Design Contest through many of their publications. Entrants were invited to design the artwork for [[Spiky-eared Pichu M (Movie Random Pack Promo 9)|Spiky-eared Pichu]] {{SP|M}} 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 illustrators (whose artwork were also featured on the cards in the {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}}). This contest was restricted to residents of Japan and is so far the largest to be held in the history of the TCG.<br>
Application periods varied on the publication:
*Kindergarten; Televi-Kun; Elementary School 1st Grade: Feb 28 - March 31, 2009
*Elementary School 2nd Grade - Elementary School 6th Grade: March 3 - April 2, 2009
*CoroCoro; Pucchigumi: March 14 - April 14, 2009
*Pokémon Fan: March 18 - April 20, 2009
*CoroCoro Ichiban!: March 25 - April 24, 2009
Cards were distributed in conjunction with theatrical release of ''[[M12|Arceus: To a Conquering Spacetime]]'' on July 18, 2009.


===Illustrations===
A total of 552 winning entries were chosen across the twelve publications, broken down into four bands:

==2009 Pokémon Card Design Contest==
It is unknown if there were 100 copies of the selected entries distributed to each of the winners due to the low numbers of complete sets that have surfaced within the collector community. It is speculated that there may only be twelve sets - one for each of the winners.
In 2009, [[Shōgakukan]] held the '''2009 Pokémon Card Design Contest''' through many of their publications. Entrants were requested to design the artwork for [[Spiky-eared Pichu M (Movie Random Pack Promo 9)|Spiky-eared Pichu]] {{SP|M}} 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 illustrators (whose artwork were also featured on the cards in the {{TCG|Movie Commemoration Random Pack}}).

==2010 Pokémon Card Design Contest==
In 2010, Shōgakukan held another Pokémon Card Design Contest through many of their publications. Entrants were invited to design the artwork for {{TCG ID|L-P|Illusion's Zorua|Promo}} and {{TCG ID|L-P|Illusion's Zoroark|Promo}}, again using a pre-drawn template. This contest, much like the one held in 2009, was restricted to residents of Japan. The application period across all publications ran from February 20 to April 2, 2010. Winners were announced on July 27, 2010.<br>
A total of 660 winning entries were chosen across the ten publications, broken down into four bands:
*'''Best award''' (1 winner; 10 total): 100 sets of the winning cards, a [[Nintendo DSi]], and a copy of ''[[Pokémon Ranger: Locus of Light]]''
*'''Excellence award''' (5 winners; 50 total): One Johto Pokédex
*'''Special award''' (10 winners; 100 total): One copy of ''[[Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver Music Super Complete]]''
*'''Lucky award''' (50 winners; 500 total): Five booster packs of ''{{TCG|Reviving Legends}}''
All selected entrants also received the regular prints of Illusion's Zorua and Illusion's Zoroark (660 total).
Again, it is unknown if there were 100 copies of the selected entries distributed to each of the winners. It is speculated that there may only be ten sets - one for each of the winners.
