Hello Pokemon USA Fans!

It's me Terry Tibke writing my first letter to you all. First off I'd like to thank all of you who have sent "fan mail" persay, supporting my work on the Pokemon USA card set. It's been quite a bit of work, but work that I really have enjoyed. Philippe has been great to work with despite problems with Hotmail... (piece o' crap). At any rate, this letter does have a purpose.

I'm about half way done with the first 100 card set for Pokemon USA and am slowly crankin out the rest in the set. But... there are about 15 Trainer Cards that need to be filled. Perhaps less, depending on how many Philippe will be putting in of his own.

Many of you have come up with some great ideas for Trainer Cards that are currently under the OTHER section. I'd like for any of you who don't mind me doing a version of your card, to write me an e-mail letting me know. I'll look through what responses I get and decide which will "make the cut", I suppose you could say.

If your card doesn't make it into the Pokemon USA Basic Set, do not fret! We have 2 expansion sets planned out already and each has about 10 more Trainer Cards that are included in them!

That's about all the room and time I have for now. Life is just too busy sometimes. Be on the look out for a bunch of new stuff to take place in the future of Pokemon USA. I have drawn Philippe's actual Gym Leaders and the boy hero Seth. These will be put up under the Pokemon USA page as soon as time permits. Once again, we appreciate your support of both Pokemon USA and Pokemon AAAAAH! overall. Thank you very much.

Sincerely,

Terry 1
