Trivia

The illustration on both prints in the first Japanese production run depict Chandelure with a complete equatorial line on its head instead of just between its eyes. This error was addressed in an apology statement uploaded to the official Japanese Pokémon Card website on September 17, 2021 before the general release of the Fusion Arts expansion.^[1] Subsequent Japanese production runs rectified the error on both prints.
