Release information

This card was reprinted in the Base Set 2 and Legendary Collection reprint sets, which were only released outside of Japan.

Trivia

  • Early prints of the card mistakenly list the weight as length.
  • Although PoisonPowder uses CamelCase in the games, it uses normal case on this card.

Origin

Stiffen is similar to Harden, a move in the Pokémon games that Kakuna can learn. PoisonPowder comes directly from the games, but Kakuna can not learn it. The card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue.
