Release information

This card was included in the Base Set, first released in the Japanese Expansion Pack. It was reprinted in the Base Set 2 and Legendary Collection expansions, as well as the Japanese Neo Introduction Set. It was later reclassified as a Supporter card with new artwork by the same artist as one of the P Promotional cards, and was available as an insert with Volume 13 of Pokémon Card Trainers magazine, released in September 2001. This print was never released in English; however, it was reprinted again with the Supporter classification in the HeartGold & SoulSilver with new artwork by the same artist. This print was subsequently available in the Gyarados Half Deck of the English HS Trainer Kit, as well as the Japanese Steelix and Tyranitar Constructed Standard Decks.

Scarlet & Violet Series

This card was reprinted in Holofoil with its HeartGold & SoulSilver artwork in the Pokémon Trading Card Game Classic. This reprint lacks a regulation mark and is thus not legal for tournament play.
