after a lot of reverse image searching, and no matches on bulbapedia, i scrapped together some evidence of a 2003 pokemon children's book "Play with English!" intended to teach english to japanese-speaking kids. it came with a CD with both languages, had 30 pages and was published by shogakukan. i'm not sure how this would properly be documented on the site, so i'm posting this searching for help.
