Another Mirror Holofoil print, this time a SM-P Promotional card, was awarded to winners of DeckBuildBattle events held at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues across Japan, which featured different formats each month. This print was available at events using the April and May formats. The April format was the Dragon Storm Feature Battle, which allowed only

Most Pokémon Card Gym venues held DeckBuildBattle events using this format during April 2018, but some were held as late as May 2, 2018. The May format was the Champion Road Feature Battle, which required at least 6 cards from the Champion Road subset to be included in a Standard-regulation deck.
