So the other day I was cleaning my closet and throwing away boxes and I came across my Pokemon Binder. Looking through it I found my Emerald VIP Card from reserving it way back when.

Now if you remember this package, it gave you the Final Frontier guide and a VIP Card for a website that was never really put up, and going to URL would lead to an error.

Curiosity made me think of who actually got it. Seeing that they go for $57 USD on ebay and it seems no one has pictures of it anymore.

So who remembers these tins? ._.

Hmm...I don't remember something like that being advertised in the UK.
Speaking of which, what was the website for?

I didn't even mean to link ebay, I just typed it and it seemed to link it o:
But I'm not sure if it was Global or just US.
But it never said what the special website was for. I assumed free Emerald wallpapers and stuff.
Sadly it was never published /:

I still have mine. It came with a small booklet that talks about the Battle Frontier and there's also a Rayquaza card with a password on the back. The password would let you sign up for a special forum and let you download wallpapers and other stuff promoting Emerald but I never really bothered to use it. It is completely useless today because site was shut down long ago. For reference, mine was SLB-339-PKE-743 There's also a piece of paper that invites you to use the tin as a carrying case for your Game Boy Advance SP and Pokemon Emerald cartridge.

I have that! xD

I don't really remember a V.I.P card though. Just the frontier guide.
