Card text

Release information

This card was reprinted with artwork by the same artist as a McDonald's promotional card in Japan in May 2002. It was reprinted again with different artwork by Ken Sugimori. In Japan, it was available through a Meiji Chocolate campaign in June 2005. The English print was a secret card in the EX Holon Phantoms set. This print changes "number of Energy cards" in Super Psywave attack's effect to "amount of Energy", literally changing the effect from counting the cards to counting the Energy.

Origin
