Release information
This card was originally released in the Diamond & Pearl expansion with artwork by Ken Sugimori. In March 2007, a holographic variant of this print was one of the cards available in the US Template:Merch as a special sneak preview before the actual release of the expansion. It was subsequently released outside the US in Template:Merch later that year. This holographic variant was released again in the Template:Merch in January 2009, as well as being made available in several European countries as part of various Summer tour events taking place between July and October 2009. A promotional parallel foil variant with a "Diamond & Pearl" stamp was also released as part of a Burger King promotion in July 2008. In Japan, the card was reprinted as a promotional mini card as part of a 7-Eleven Poké Ball Lottery campaign in March 2007. This version, measuring 4.5cm × 6.5cm, was randomly packaged with certain 7-Eleven products in select stores.
The card was later reprinted as a DP Black Star Promo with different artwork by Kagemaru Himeno. It was released in June 2007 in Template:Merch. The Japanese version was released through a Meiji Chocolate promotion in February 2007. It was reprinted again in POP Series 6 with different artwork by Kagemaru Himeno, the Japanese version available through a trade event at the 25th Next Generation World Hobby Fair in January 2007.
