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 characters' names are printed in the upper right corner.

Origin

The Rebel Clash prints feature Giovanni, formerly the head of Team Rocket and Gym Leader of Viridian City; the Shining Fates and Lost Origin prints feature Lysandre, the boss of Team Flare; the Brilliant Stars and SWSH251 prints feature Cyrus, the boss of Team Galactic; and the Triplet Beat prints feature Ghetsis, the leader of Team Plasma. A group of Team Rocket Grunts, a Trainer class, is also featured in the Giovanni Regular print's illustration.
