In Japan, this card was reprinted with artwork from one of five winning entries of the [[Nintendo 64]] [[Pokémon Snap]] contest held in Spring 1999. This version is extremely rare and the exact number in existence is unknown. This card was reprinted in the {{TCG|Base Set 2}} and {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} reprint sets, which were only released outside of Japan. A special reprint with redrawn art by Mitsuhiro Arita was released in the {{TCG|Stormfront}} set. This print modified some of the card text to bring it in line with modern card wording whilst still allowing it to retain its original effects.
