Release information
This card was released as a HGSS Black Star Promo card, available in the Triumphant Three Pack Blisters from November 2010. In Japan, this card was available through the Get in Battle! Summer Vacation Battle Campaign 2010, a special variant of traditional Japanese Gym Challenges which used a points system similar to English and European Pokémon Leagues. Participating venues provided a Points Card, in which players could earn a stamp (equal to 1 "point") by purchasing LEGEND-era booster packs, by battling other players, or by making a new friend at a venue. Points earned from booster packs was limited to 10, and points earned by battling others was limited to 10 per day. The card was awarded to anyone who had accumulated 5 points throughout the campaign, which ran throughout August 2010. This print features the Gym Challenge logo for the 2009-2010 season.
