Passengers flying in conjunction with the “It’s a Pika Summer!” campaign could redeem their boarding passes for the 2 card set including Pikachu and Larvitar. This is the 1st Pikachu card to feature the e-Card format along with the new Japanese card back.
P promotional cards were the first Japanese promo cards to have a numbering system. These cards were numbered ###/P (P for Promotional), indicating that other Promotional sets could be released. Similar to the English promo cards, these cards featured a black star "PROMO" symbol.
With the release of e-Card the card layout was redesigned. View card for comparison of last format.
This is the first Pikachu card to feature the Japanese "e-Card" format.
e-Cards feature a “dot code” barcode. The barcode can be swiped through the Nintendo e-Reader, which would activate mini-games or prompt a Pokédex data entry for the Pokémon on the card. The barcode was omitted on any e-Cards featuring a holofoil treatment, that way holographic cards would not be swiped through the e-Reader and be damaged.
