Release information

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

  • The illustration takes inspiration from the first No.3 Trainer produced in Japan in 1997, featuring Pikachu clutching a bronze trophy.
  • 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 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.
