Trivia

Origin

Pay Day is a move in the Pokémon games that Meowth can learn. The Japanese name of the attack uses the Hiragana ねこ rather than the Katakana ネコ used in the video games. The card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, whereas the Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
