This card was reprinted in the {{TCG|EX Legend Maker}}, {{TCG|EX Holon Phantoms}}, {{TCG|EX Power Keepers}} and {{TCG|Legends Awakened}} sets with new art by the same artist. The EX Legend Maker print changed "instead of a Trainer card" to "as well as a Trainer card"; this kept the card in line with a prior errata.
