Release information

In Japan, this card was available as an insert with the February 1999 issue of CoroCoro Comic. The English version of the card was included with Template:Card GB for the Game Boy Color.

Trivia

• The attack text for the English release of this card was slightly altered from its Japanese version, as it was considered too vague. The English Template:Card GB version of the card still contains the original Japanese translation, as it was created before Wizards of the Coast produced the card.
  • Additionally, the English print of the card nudges the HP over a bit farther to the left than normal.
• The card displays a 'GB' symbol in the bottom right corner of the artwork, indicating it was originally created exclusively for the Game Boy.
• Meowth's level on the card is listed as Lv. 13 although it is Lv. 14 in the game.
