Release information
In Japan, this card was released as a promotional card by All Nippon Airlines throughout June and July in 1999 with artwork by Toshinao Aoki. Passengers flying in conjunction with the "Pokémon Getaways" campaign could redeem their boarding passes for a two-card set that included Articuno and Flying Pikachu. The English version was given away in the first few weeks of the theatrical release of The Power of One with then English-exclusive artwork by Naoyo Kimura.
The card was reprinted in Japan with the English artwork in Pokémon Web. The original Japanese artwork was eventually featured on English cards when reprinted in Supreme Victors as a retro card; this print omitted the second comma from the attack effect.
