Trivia

This card displays a 'GB' symbol in place of the Expansion symbol, indicating it was created exclusively for the Game Boy.
This is one of the four Legendary Cards, which are central to the plot of Pokémon Trading Card Game, and its sequel Pokémon Card GB2: Here Comes Team GR!.
This card uses the same stock art of Moltres that was previously used on the promotional phone card print of Moltres. This artwork was used again on Gym Heroes Rocket's Moltres.

Origin

Dive Bomb's Japanese name is a spelling error of the Japanese name of Sky Attack, a move in the Pokémon games that Moltres can learn. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Yellow, whereas the Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue.
