Release information
This card came in both red-cheeked and yellow-cheeked versions. The yellow-cheeked version is the true version, the red-cheeked variation is a highly sought-after misprint. Both were given out as a promotion at E3 with a gold foil E3 logo stamped where the set symbol would appear in later sets, as well as appearing in Base Set packs without the foil logo. The yellow-cheeked version of this card was reprinted in the Base Set 2 reprint set, which was only released outside of Japan.
The card was later reprinted in POP Series 2 with new artwork by Yuka Morii.
Trivia
This card was infamously known as Yellow Cheeks Pikachu as a reference to the card's artwork and to differ it from Pikachu card from the Jungle set. This name also appeared in some instruction manuals produced by Wizards of the Coast.
Origin
Thunder Jolt is similar to Thundershock, which Pikachu can learn. The card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue Versions, though it is slightly reworded.
