Trivia

The Japanese Unnumbered Promotional print is commonly known as Natta Wake Mankey in reference to the publication in which it was distributed. It is also the only glossy card released in conjunction with the series: the other five were printed on regular card stock. The text on the bottom of this print's card border reads: "Pokémon Card Books "How I Became a Pokémon Card" bonus card."

Origin

Scratch is a move in the Pokémon games that Mankey can learn. 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.
