The Pikachu World Collection is a 9-card set featuring only Pikachu cards, printed in nine different languages. The collection was available to purchase exclusively at Pokémon Park 2000 held at Sydney University, Sydney, Australia from September 12 to October 4, 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 Base Set Pikachu, 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.
Ten years later, in 2010, a second Pikachu World Collection was released alongside the Japanese set Clash at the Summit. This Pikachu World Collection included nine unique Pikachu cards instead of reprints.

Trivia
While commonly referred to as a special collection binder, the Pikachu World Collection isn't exactly a binder; rather, it consists of a singular 9-pocket page.
