Since we’re playing the numbers game, here’s a few I’ve come across in Japanese Magazines:
1999 Challenge Road Tropical Wind: 90?
From what this says, this was given to the top 10 finishers at each regional 1999 Challenge Road event. Since there were 9 events, that looks to be 90 copies (which seems too low to me). Am I translating this wrong if anyone knows Japanese:
1999 Tropical Mega Battle (Hawaii) Exeggutor (Non-Glossy): 36?
I’ve read the number as 36 entrants to the 1999 Tropical Mega Battle making 36 copies of the card (But I have not confirmed this number in Japanese published print, it was listed in a newspaper article written before the TMB Hawaii). This one was for sure given out at the International finals in Hawaii.
2000 Tropical Mega Battle (Hawaii) 9th Lucky Stadium: 42 copies confirmed
A Japanese Trainer Mag article states 42 entrants were enrolled in the tournament, and it also shows from which countries all the 42 entrants came.
2000 World Challenge Super Secret Battle Tropjies: 20 sets
There were 20 sets of the W.C. Super Secret Battle promos (8 events, two were 2 day tournaments, and two age groups), and it looks like there was male and female variants included within these sets. These cards had the winners name and tournament location printed on them. Based on the winners pictures, here is the approximate number of each variant (perhaps there is some variance, it was hard to differentiate the males from females based on a headshot picture at times):
No.1 Male: 17
No.1 Female: 3
No.2 Male: 19
No.2 Female: 1 (rarest card ever!?)
No.3 Male: 20
No.3 Female 0
Cool tidbit of info: I found the picture and name of the exact card winner who won my No.2 W.C. SSB card (because the name and tournament location are printed on the card). SO cool!
NOTE: There were 2 finals for this event (based on the pictures, they look to be small finals with just , and in the Trainer Mag it shows one set of medalists for each holding what looks to be more of these cards. So there could be 2 more sets in here, I presume they changed the text for the finalist card? This remains to be seen. Those included 1 No.1 Female, 1 No.2 Female, and all the other 4 were Males.
2001 Neo Spring Road Trophies (Same artwork as the W.C. SSB, different text, has a star image in the text) 18sets
There were 7 tournaments, two were 2 day, two age groups for all, making for 18 sets.
Here’s the kicker! Looks like the 4th place winner got a trophy too! I have a couple tiny pictures of the 4 trophies together. Looks like at this event they recognized 3rd and 4th place finishers with trophies that were identical and said No.3 Trainer. Very cool stuff! Therefore there are 36 of the No.3 Trainer from this tournament. Again, on all these cards the name of the winner, and the tournament location are printed on the card.
I’m guessing there were male and female variants, but have no way to confirm. There are a few female winners in the bunch. Not going to go into details here!
There was also a 2001 Neo Summer Road which likely yielded similar card counts and had cards with the same artwork. Of course on the card text the two tournaments would be differentiated from each other.
Finally: Each of these 2001 Neo Road events yielded a final that each yielded one set of trophy cards. These are the infamous Lugia and Ho Oh holo cards with the picture of the card winner on them. These are likely some of the rarest Pokemon cards in existence 
Put a lot of work into this! Hope you enjoy it. I will be working this into a large detailed article in the summer, complete with pictures and info on a lot more cards!
. And since there were two age groups at these events, there are 16 sets of these “plaques”.
