Release information
This card was released in the English Base Set, first originating from the Japanese Expansion Pack. It was reprinted in the English Base Set 2 expansion. It was also reprinted as a reverse holofoil promotional card given out at BattleZone events in December 2002 as part of the Best of Game collection. This print has a gold "Winner" stamp in the bottom right corner of the artwork. A jumbo version of this print lacking the reverse holofoil was also released.
A special reprint with the same artwork by Ken Sugimori was released in the English Platinum expansion, originating from the Japanese Galactic's Conquest expansion. 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.
