| Line 80: | Line 80: | ||
Prior to the launch of both the Expedition Base Set and the Game Boy Advance [[e-Reader]] itself, slightly thicker-than-usual, glossy versions of the non-holo Pichu, Hoppip, and "Manhole" card were used to demonstrate the e-Reader's functionality. Unlike the prints given out at E3, these prints have an English back. These three cards were hole-punched so that they could be attached to promotional kiosks by having a cable looped through them; this was done to prevent loss or theft while allowing enough flexibility for the card to be swiped through the device. | Prior to the launch of both the Expedition Base Set and the Game Boy Advance [[e-Reader]] itself, slightly thicker-than-usual, glossy versions of the non-holo Pichu, Hoppip, and "Manhole" card were used to demonstrate the e-Reader's functionality.

The vast majority of Japanese {{TCG|Base Expansion Pack}} cards have a 1st Edition stamp, however some were released in unlimited format. It is not known how the unlimited cards were distributed, but it's thought that they came from a special edition of {{TCG|Pokémon-e Starter Deck}} box which was distributed to 50 winners of a coloring contest held in Japan in 2002. | |||
