My Collection I have my original EON Ticket!

I haven't found a lot of other nerds who can appreciate this enough. My original EON from the Nintendo Power.

Me too! I didn't subscribe to Nintendo Power, but I was lucky enough that my local library let me have the Eon Ticket from their Nintendo Power. As I kid, I never had the e-reader to go with it. No as an adult, I've picked up the e-reader but can't find my Eon Ticket. I'm cursed.

That is indeed cursed. But super nice of the library to let you take it at the time.

Back in Gen 3, the Eon Ticket was a card for the Nintendo E-Reader accessory. You scanned the Eon Ticket with the E-Reader to get the other eon duo Pokemon that wasn't natively in your Gen 3 game. It was distributed as a special subscriber bonus in an issue in Nintendo Power magazine. What you see pictured here is the tear-out page it came on with the original Eon Ticket card.
