Trivia

• This card displays a 'GB' symbol in place of the Expansion symbol, indicating it was created exclusively for the Game Boy.

• This card uses the same stock Sugimori art of Moltres that was previously used on the promotional phone card print of Moltres.

Origin

Dive Bomb's Japanese name is a spelling error of the Japanese name of Sky Attack, a move in the Pokémon games that Moltres can learn. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Yellow, whereas the Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue.
