TL;DR Summary

The Pokémon Company has altered its plans for distributing the sought-after Van Gogh Pikachu card to combat scalping, reducing the number of cards given to local stores by 90% and opting to distribute most through larger chain stores in Amsterdam. The card will be available to those who spend €29.99, but concerns remain about scalpers obtaining and reselling them. The move comes after previous chaos during a distribution event at the Van Gogh Museum, where scalpers swarmed the store and sold the free giveaway for high prices online.
