Release information

This card was included in the Guardians Rising expansion with artwork by You Iribi, first released in the Japanese Islands Await You expansion.

It was reprinted as one of the Japanese SM-P Promotional cards with new artwork by kirisAki, made available in the Alolan Vulpix Special Set from April 21, 2017, which could be purchased at Pokémon Centers, Pokémon Stores, and other participating store chains, including: 7-Eleven, Circle K Sunkus, Daily Yamazaki, FamilyMart, Ministop, and Lawson. This print later became an English Yellow A Alternate card, available in the Ultra Prism Three Pack Blisters released February 2, 2018. Another Japanese SM-P Promotional version of this print with a different collection number was 1 of 5 cards available in special packs of Daiichi Choco & Custard Pan and Daiichi Bacon & Potato Pan from December 1, 2018. This version has the Daiichi Pan Pokémon Pan logo on the bottom right corner of the artwork.

Two versions of the Guardians Rising print were included in the Sun & Moon Trainer Kit: Alolan Sandslash & Alolan Ninetales.
