The Phantom Cards seem to be based on the [[Mythical Pokémon]] (for comparison, the [[Legendary Cards]] seem to be based on the [[Legendary Pokémon]]). The Phantom Cards and Mythical Pokémon are named with the same Japanese word: "{{tt|幻|まぼろし}}" (''Illusory'').

In {{ga|Pokémon Trading Card Game}}, there are two Phantom Cards: {{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Venusaur|13}} and {{TCG ID|Promotional Card|Mew|PXX}}. They can only be obtained through [[Card Pop!]]. Due to an oversight in the way the Card Pop! mechanic determines which card you will get, the Phantom Venusaur card is left unobtainable. Because a player cannot Card Pop! with same partner save file again until both players have used the feature with fifteen others; causing their partner's ID to be overwritten in both save files, the Phantom Mew card is potentially the hardest card to acquire in the game. The Venusaur card was also distributed in real life with the purchase of the game's [[Pokémon Card GB Official Guidebook|Japanese Guidebook]] or [[Pokémon Trading Card Game: Official Nintendo Player's Guide|English Player's Guide]]. Both of these cards are needed for the {{TCG|Mysterious Pokémon Deck}}, making it unused due to the oversight.
