All the Midori Harada art in POP9 can be combined together to form a beach scene. I think there used to be a picture of the complete artwork floating around on the internet, but if it did exist I don’t know if you’d have an easy time finding it. You can arrange the cards to get an idea of what it looked like, though, as shown here: https://archive.ph/6arJo
Should that link stop working, the order is
Row 1: Pichu, Pikachu, Buneary
Row 2: Raichu, Pachirisu, Buizel
Row 3: Turtwig, Chimchar, Croagunk

It’s recently occurred to me that these cards are likely intended as a spiritual sequel to a set of e-Card promos also illustrated by Midori Harada. Those cards all also had artwork which combined to form a larger scene, and all the Pokémon had attacks which had attacks that did extra damage/had additional effects if you had other Pokémon from the same scene in play. I haven’t been giving pokumon.com much mention as an information resource as of late, but in this case they’re the easiest link in terms of grouping the sets in question together – a result of the fact that pokumon.com has features that group cards together by events they were released in, and these collections came out together in special summer events for the respective years;
Midori Harada 2002 collection (JP-only)*;
https://pokumon.com/release_event/pokemon-happy-adventure-rally/ || https://archive.is/642LA
Midori Harada 2008 collection (“POP9”);
https://pokumon.com/release_event/collection-challenge/ || https://archive.is/ifAOR (and see also link in OP comment where cards are organized into the full image)
Like the 2008 collection, I’m not sure the original full image of the 2002 collection can be found.
* The 2002 collection might have had an alternate artwork counterpart scene, as evidenced by another Pikachu-illustrated Harada in a scene nearly identical to the one that made it into the collection;
