Trivia

Origin

Amnesia is a move in the Pokémon games that Poliwhirl can learn. Double Slap, formatted on this card as Doubleslap, is also a move in the games that Poliwhirl can learn. The Japanese name uses the Hiragana びんた rather than the Katakana ビンタ used in the video games. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
