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.
