Release information
This card was released as a promotional card. The English release of this card came with the Arceus Poster Pack. In Japan, the DPt-P print was distributed at the theatrical release of Arceus: To a Conquering Spacetime. Three other prints were also released as part of the Movie Commemoration Random Pack with illustrations done by manga artists. These illustrations were also used as part of the Pokémon Card Design Contest in which through several Shōgakukan magazines, fans were provided a blank outline of the Pokémon and invited to design the most interesting illustration. The winning illustrations were released as promotional cards in July 2009. Another reprint was also released with new artwork by Natsumi Nishiyama, the winner of the Weekly Shōnen Sunday Magazine illustration contest, which was an original drawing as opposed to the pre-made drawings of the other contest.
