Release information

This card was included in the Team Rocket expansion as both a Holofoil and Non Holofoil card, first released in the Japanese Rocket Gang expansion as a Holofoil card. The Sneak Attack Pokémon Power's effect was changed between the two languages: the original Japanese print does not have Weakness and Resistance applied to Benched Pokémon, while the English print does. This card is missing a space before the last sentence of Sneak Attack's text, causing it to read "Pokémon.Apply".
