Trivia

  • The requirement of Bill's PC for the campaign led to the five available cards to become known colloquially as Masaki promos in reference to Bill's Japanese name.
  • Cards from the Expansion Sheets are printed on glossy card stock, while those distributed as part of the Communication Evolution Campaign are printed on regular card stock.

Origin

Rollout and Rock Blast are both moves in the Pokémon games that Golem can learn, though Rollout did not appear as a move until Generation II and Rock Blast until Generation III. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Blue.
