Release information

This card was included as a Regular card, a Full Art card, and as a Secret Rainbow Rare in the Rebel Clash expansion, first released in the Japanese Rebellion Crash expansion, each featuring Giovanni with artwork by nagimiso. The Regular print was reprinted in the Japanese Shiny Star V subset.

A new print featuring Lysandre with artwork by Ryuta Fuse was included in the Shining Fates expansion, first released in the Japanese Venusaur & Blastoise VMAX Starter Sets. A Non Holofoil version of the Giovanni Regular print was available in the Japanese Single Strike & Rapid Strike Premium Trainer Boxes, Sword & Shield Family Pokémon Card Game set, and Zacian & Zamazenta vs Eternatus Special Deck Set. Holofoil versions of the Lysandre print were included in the V Battle Deck—Venusaur vs. Blastoise, in both of the Japanese High-Class Decks, and in the Japanese VMAX Climax subset. A Full Art print featuring Lysandre with artwork by NC Empire was also included in the VMAX Climax subset.

Another print featuring Cyrus with artwork by GIDORA was included in the Japanese Start Deck 100 and could be obtained in Non Holofoil and Mirror Holofoil versions. Holofoil and Non Holofoil Cyrus prints were also released in the Japanese Star Birth expansion and VSTAR Premium Trainer Box, respectively. The Holofoil print was later included in the Brilliant Stars expansion and concurrent V Battle Deck—Lycanroc vs. Corviknight. In Japan, the Cyrus print was reprinted in both VSTAR Starter Sets and again as a Mirror Holofoil in the Start Deck 100 CoroCoro Comic Version.

Trivia

• This card's effect is identical to Lysandre. As such, it was ruled that Lysandre and Boss's Orders could not be included in the same deck.
  • Similarly to Professor's Research, Boss's Orders was named specifically to prevent the need for future rulings such as this for subsequent prints featuring different villainous team leaders. The character's names are printed in the upper right corner.

Origin

The Rebel Clash prints features Giovanni, formerly the head of Team Rocket and Gym Leader of Viridian City; the Shining Fates and VMAX Climax prints features Lysandre, the boss of Team Flare; and the Brilliant Stars print features Cyrus, the boss of Team Galactic. A group of Team Rocket Grunts, a Trainer class, is also featured in the Giovanni Regular print's illustration.
