In the Australian release, the Unlimited print used red lettering for the word "Pokémon" instead of yellow on the relevant products of:booster boxes, booster packs, theme decks & theme deck cases. This was to help prevent counterfeiting. The non-holographic cards obtained from these red logo packs have a 1999-2000 copyright at the bottom of the card as well as a different card stock. Note that the holographic cards obtained from these red logo packs have the standard 1999 copyright at the bottom. | In the Australian release, the Unlimited print used red lettering for the word "Pokémon" instead of yellow on the relevant products of:booster boxes, booster packs, theme decks & theme deck cases.
