*A misprint was made on the English version of this card. Its Psyshock attack was printed as saying "{{TCG|Confused}}" where it should say "Paralyzed".
*This card is commonly known as ''Glossy Mew'' or ''Lily Pad Mew''. The former refers to the Japanese ''CoroCoro'' version, while the latter refers to an interpretation of the card's illustration.
*Additionally, the "Pokémon Power:  Neutral Shield" text on the English card is red, which was unusual for a {{ct|Psychic}} card prior to the split of Pokémon Powers into Poké-Powers and Poké-Bodies.  Typical Pokémon Powers on English Psychic-type cards are in blue, while some of their Japanese counterparts (including the Japanese version of this card) are in yellow.
*Psyshock's effect was misprinted on the English version, stating "Confused" instead of "Paralyzed". Additionally, the Pokémon Power text is red instead of blue, as per other non-Japanese Psychic-type cards.
*This card is commonly known as ''Glossy Mew'' or ''Lily Pad Mew''. The former refers to the Japanese version obtained in the CoroCoro Magazine, which was printed on glossy card stock as opposed regular stock, while the latter refers to the card's illustration.
*The version obtained from the JR Rally is printed on the regular card stock. Therefore it is the card stock which differentiates the CoroCoro version from the JR Rally version.
