Koga's Ninja Trick (Japanese: キョウ秘伝, 変わり身の術 Kyō's Secret Replacement Technique) is a Trainer card. It is part of the Gym Challenge set.

This card was subject to much controversy due to the fact it featured an omote manji, which is a mirror-image version of the swastika used by the Nazis, on the card. The manji, which has a connection with Buddhism, hearkens back to centuries before the Nazi regime began. The artwork was changed to remove the manji for the English and international releases.

This article is part of Project TCG, a Bulbapedia project that aims to report on every aspect of the Pokémon Trading Card Game.
