The | The '''Pikachu World Collection''' is a 9-card set featuring only [[Pikachu]] cards, printed in nine different languages. The collection was released in September 2000 to accompany the Sydney 2000 Summer Olympics. Aligned with the Olympics' theme of global unity, the Pikachu World Collection mirrored this sentiment by producing Pikachu cards in nine distinct languages; English, German, French, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Chinese and Korean. The cards were reprints of past Pikachu cards including [[Pikachu (Base Set 58)|Base Set Pikachu]], [[Pikachu (Jungle 60)|Jungle Pikachu]] and seven other Black Star Promo Pikachu. The World Collection reprints have a gold foil stamp in the shape of a Pikachu tail outside the lower-left corner of the illustration box. | ||
