==Release information==
This card was released in the English {{TCG|Fossil}} expansion as both a Holofoil and Non Holofoil card, originating from the Japanese {{TCG|Mystery of the Fossils}} as only a Holofoil card. In Japan, this card was reprinted with artwork by [[Yui Tanaka]], one of five winning entries of the 64 Mario Stadium [[Pokémon Snap]] Best Photo Contest held in Spring 1999. This version is extremely rare and the exact number in existence is unknown. It was later reprinted with different artwork by [[Ken Sugimori]], available as a prize at the 1999 Tropical Mega Battle tournament. Those who were not in the main event could still battle each other, earning stamps for every battle they participated in. Those who completed their stamp booklet were awarded either an Articuno, {{TCG ID|Fossil|Moltres|12}} or {{TCG ID|Fossil|Zapdos|15}} phone card at random in a sealed envelope. The Holofoil print of this card was later reprinted in the English {{TCG|Legendary Collection}} expansion.
