Mudkip (EX Ruby & Sapphire 60): Difference between revisions

Fixed wording about released cards 60/109, 003/009, #005 and #010 due to incorrect timeline. The JP Const. Starter Deck came first, EX Ruby & Sapphire second, then the #010 card with artwork by Nishida, and finally the #005 holofoil card with artwork by Sugimori again. Also added details on release of the foreign language variations of #005 promo card.
(The three 005,006, and 007 promos were handed out in the US at officially sanctioned POP tournaments, not just in Europe.)
