Release information

Platinum print

This card was reprinted in the Base Set 2 reprint set, which was only released outside of Japan. It was also reprinted by Wizards of the Coast in reverse holofoil as a Best of Game promotional card. A special reprint with the same artwork by Ken Sugimori was released in the Platinum expansion. This print modified some of the card text to bring it in line with modern card wording whilst still allowing it to retain its original effects.
