Trivia

This card's Rainbow Burn attack is similar to an attack of the same name possessed by Neo Revelation's Ho-Oh. While this card's version has a lower base power, it gets a larger power boost for each different type of Energy attached to Ho-Oh; this version of the attack is actually stronger than the Neo Revelation version when Ho-Oh has three or more different types of basic Energy attached to it.

Origin

Golden Wing's name references Ho-Oh's status as the version mascot of Pokémon Gold. Rainbow Burn reflects a general association between Ho-Oh and rainbows, as noted in many of its Pokédex entries.
