Hi,

I have two Japanese jumbo promo cards that I have never seen anywhere online or otherwise. I bouth them between 4 and 6 years ago at separate times from the leader of our (now almost dead Pokemon League. Are they rare? Where did people originally get them?

Here is a description of them.

Giant holo Latios and Latias card (Japanese.) It says "Pikachu the movie 5th" on it in red and I have NEVER seen another one. Latias anbd Latios are the main subject, but just beyond Latios' wings is a bluish bubble showing Celebi, below latios's head is a bubble showing Entei, just behind Latias is a bubble with lugia inm and above that, another with MewTwo in. In the right hand corner is a Normal energy symbol and the words HP120
The attaxck takes one Psychic energy, one water, and one of any other type and does 120 damage. weakness is to Psychic. Retreat cost two Energy cards (any type.)

For a picture, click on the following link.The card did not scan well as it is holo.

Giant Trainer card (Japanese but word "Trainer" is in English) with a picture of Jirarudan, the Collector from the second Pokemon movie, sat in his chair wearing his enigmatic smile. To his right (the left of the card is a greeny-pink pic (I presume it's meant to be a hologram) of Moltres, in the middle bottom is a pic of articuno, and to his left (the card's right) is a pic of Zapdos. If ANYONE knows of a translation for the text of the card, I would really love to know!
For a pic of this card, click on the link below.

I don't know where they are. They usually are found in Mall like I found my Zapdos, Articuno, and Moltres Jumbo card with attack of Big Bang at the mall. I think they're impossible to find unless you buy an import jumbo cards from Japan...

What you have are Corocoro promos.

Corocoro is magazine that is related to card collecting and manga aimed at boys. They've featured tons of Pokemon promo cards in the pass, as well as Rockman(Megaman), Power Rangers, etc.

Both of the cards that you have are from this magazine. Corocoro has also issued other jumbo cards including Entei, Mewtwo v. Mew, US WotC Pikachu, Pikachu's Summer Vacation, Legendary Birds, Dark Lugia(from the Pokemon XD game). Three of these Jumbos have made their way to the US in jumbo format and are availble in English..these are the WotC Pikachu, Legendary Birds and Dark Lugia.

I saw some of these at JAA. I only saw professor elm's method but there were others. I would really like some of these if you can buy them? where can you get them?

XD, put one in your deck, they would never know which card it is :p

Cutiebunny: Thank you!

Ho-oh Master: I got mine off the guy who used to run our former poke league, but i saw some cards like them on Ebay. Do a search under "Jumbo pokemon Cards". I saw the giant legendary birds promo there recently, and many others. Not the two mentioned above, though.

Wait a minute, so what about my Jumbo card?

I have an English, Jumbo Espeon card which I think is from Aquapolis(it's one of those earlier sets, I don't remember which).

Anyway, in the bottom right-hand corner, it has a big box/square looking symbol and I have no idea what it means.

I have three jumbos. Its got a cube in the bottom corner. They are Entei, Suicine and Scizor.

Thos cards with the square on the bottom are not promos, but box toppers.

If you purchased a box of Pokemon cards during the Aquapolis, Skyridge sets, you received one of these cards inside.

I didn't do any of that. There was a box on display at the huge toystore on Oxford Street, and those three cards were there. I asked if I could have them and the man said yeah. SO I took them! Awesome!!!

Clearly we're great!
I know what the Jirarudan card says (of course I would). It lets you take an Articuno, Zapdos, or Moltres from your opponent's bench, remove all cards from it, and use it as if it were your own.

Unfortunately, it can't be played.
