In the TCG
- Main article: Max Revive (Gym Challenge 117)
Max Revive was introduced as an Trainer card in the Pokémon Trading Card Game during the English Original Series (the Japanese Original Era) in the Gym Challenge expansion with artwork by Hikaru Koike. It was later included as an Item card with a completely different effect and new artwork by 5ban Graphics in the English XY expansion, first released in the Japanese Collection X.
In the Gym Challenge print, this Trainer card allows the player to discard two Energy cards from their hand in order to put one Basic Pokémon from their discard pile onto their Bench. In the XY print, this Trainer card allows the player to put a Pokémon from their discard pile onto their Bench.
In the TFG
- Main article: Max Revive (Next Quest 3)
Max Revive was included as a Trainer card in the first Pokémon Trading Figure Game expansion, Next Quest. It allows the player to move one of their Pokémon from the Pokémon Center to their Bench.
It uses the same artwork as the Max Revive Trainer card from the TCG's Gym Challenge expansion.
Trivia
- The Max Revive is similar in appearance to konpeitō, a Portuguese and Japanese sugar candy.
- Geometrically, the Max Revive closely resembles the tetrakis hexahedron, a polyhedron consisting of a cube with its square faces substituted for square-based pyramids.
- However, the Sinnoh Underground version appears geometrically different, appearing to have square antiprismatic symmetry.
- In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, if Celebi has fainted during the fight against Giovanni, Ethan/Lyra will notice and use a Max Revive on Celebi.
