Rarest Coro Coro cards?

There are five Japanese Ivy Pikachu variations (or six if we include the glossy English one that was released in Japan):

  • Glossy Ken Sugimori from the CoroCoro Comic magazine of October 15th, 1996
  • Non-glossy Keiji Kinebuchi from the Easily Understand How to Play Pokémon Cards magazine of November 30th, 1996
  • Glossy Keiji Kinebuchi from the Gekkan CoroCoro Comic magazine of October 1998 (limited to 2000 copies)
  • Glossy Keiji Kinebuchi with shifted artwork from still unknown origin (this one is the rarest and the only one I’m still missing)
  • 281/XY-P reprint from the 20th Anniversary Trade Please Campaign of September 16th, 2016

So the rarest CoroCoro Comic promo would be the Glossy Keiji Kinebuchi Pikachu from October 1998, which is limited to 2k copies, which I bought from a fellow Efour member in October last year:
