I found these on a defunct Spanish Pokémon forum, had to use the Wayback Machine to get it to download. I doubt they are all legitimate as they are easily falsified, but considering all leads on these are lost to time and with hoarders and trading circles its hard to find exacts. 

It took quite a bit of time to find this even if they are fakes, just goes to show how illusive they are, especially 15y after the fact, all traces of places hosting this sort of stuff is lost to time.

Yes, a large majority of these are fakes. The Yunosuke Ralts doesn't even have the correct TID. The only legal ones in this archive are:

02226 ルイルイ♥ Magikarp (the held mail is faked)

03126 ノリィ♪ Magikarp (the held mail is faked)

07076 ナナ Magikarp (the held mail is faked)

01256 ウッツー Magikarp (the held mail is faked)

08311 だいすき Kyocera Starly

42356 シン Shin Shinx (the held mail is faked)

Most of the GTS events are actually not too impossible to find. Psyduck and Heracross, yes, you will never find them. But Magikarp, Bidoof, Shinx and Ralts are not too difficult. The held mail for the above Magikarp can be found in Ahiru's Wonderland gen 4 archives (including the missing Ryuuta Magikarp whose met date was modified in the archive you posted). There are only a few OTs of each that are very difficult to find. You are right that they're mainly found in trading circles, and I will add that they're found in event trader collections that have not traded in well over 15 years. There is actually plenty of information still online that documents legitimate information about these GTS events. One of my main research focus are the GTS events, and I helped a friend write articles about each of the gen 4 GTS events. You can read it here:

Since I have contacts with many event collectors who traded in 2009 (because I traded for events in 2009 myself), I was able to get a lot of information that was lost to time. I was able to confirm that two people I know received a GTS event and showed the strap they received as proof. A lot of the GTS events traded during the first few months after the event finished I have found to be legitimate, but they were quickly lost to time due to NFT restrictions and people not wanting to trade them. I was able to contact a lot of them and for my own collection and research, I was able to receive all of them and confirm legitimacy for all except the Norii Bidoof and Ori Bidoof. The hardest ones to find were Maatan Shinx and Yunosuke Ralts because they were the ones hidden in old traders collections. But because I'm using my collection as research for our articles, I'm not able to give them out for free, and since I'm also an event trader, I would be needing something in return.
