Release information

This card was released as a promotional card. In Japan, it came with the February 1999 issue of CoroCoro Comic. The English version of the card was included with Pokémon Trading Card Game for the Game Boy Color.

Trivia

The attack text for the English release of this card was slightly altered from its Japanese version, as it was considered too vague. The English Pokémon Card GB version of the card still contains the original Japanese translation, as it was created before Wizards of the Coast produced the card. The card displays a 'GB' symbol in the bottom right corner of the artwork, indicating it was originally created exclusively for the Game Boy.

Origin

The card's flavor text comes from Pokémon Red and Blue.
