It was included in the {{TCG|Trainer Deck B}} that was given to prototype {{TCG|Pokémon League}}s before the Base Set's market release.

Even though the Boundaries Crossed version is technically considered a reprint, the Base Set print cannot be substituted for it in sanctioned play.

Release information

This card was released in the English Base Set, first originating from the Japanese Expansion Pack, with artwork by Keiji Kinebuchi. It was included in the Trainer Deck B that was given to prototype Pokémon Leagues before the Base Set's market release. Like all of the other cards in the deck, it has a red border and "Trainer Deck B" printed on the back. It was later reprinted in the English Base Set 2 expansion.

It was later included in the English Boundaries Crossed expansion, originating from the Japanese Cold Flare expansion, as an Ace Spec Item card with updated artwork by Ryo Ueda. Even though the Boundaries Crossed version is technically considered a reprint, the Base Set print cannot be substituted for it in sanctioned play. This is because the newer version has had a "major text change" (the Ace Spec designation).
