This card was released as a promotional card. It was awarded to those who came third in each age bracket in the World Championships. It was first awarded in 2004 when [[Pokémon Organized Play]] hosted the first Pokémon TCG World Championships under [[Nintendo]], and has been awarded at every Worlds tournament since.
 
==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Unlike previous tournament winner cards, the trophy cards produced between 2000 and 2002 had the name of the winner and the region in which the tournament was held. It is debated that this makes them rarer than those released in 1997-1999, as each one is unique.
*The illustration takes inspiration from the first {{TCG ID|Tournament|No.3 Trainer|promo}} produced in Japan in 1997, featuring {{p|Pikachu}} clutching a bronze trophy.
*The 2002 print features both male and female trainer versions, taking inspiration from the choice first given to players with the release of [[Pokémon Crystal]].
*The card is the same in each year; the only difference is the logo of the Worlds tournament it was awarded in and the year in the text.
*The double star rarity was no longer used with the 2002 print.
*The card is only printed in English, making it one of the rarest English cards in existence. There are only three copies of each annual version produced.
