Release information
This card was reprinted in the Base Set 2 reprint set, which was only released outside of Japan. It was also reprinted with updated text and new artwork by Ryo Ueda in Diamond & Pearl, Secret Wonders and Platinum. The key difference between these two prints is that the original print applied it's effect after applying Weakness and Resistance, while the later print applied the effect before applying Weakness and Resistance. It was reclassified as a Goods card when released in the Raichu Starter Deck and printed with new artwork by Takashi Yamaguchi.

Origin
PlusPower is the Japanese name of X Attack, an item in the Pokémon games. The Japanese name of the item was either used for the English card by mistake, or used intentionally as 'PlusPower' is inscribed on the side of the object in the card's original artwork.
