 {{TCG ID|Neo Genesis|Moo-Moo Milk|101}} feature different illustration in the English and Japanese prints. The Japanese print depicts a Sentret suckling on a cow-like udder, which prompted a change for releases outside Japan as it was considered inappropriate for the TCG's primary audience.

-The original Japanese print run had several text errors including missing damage values and misleading attack descriptions. In Spring 2001, over a year after the original Japanese release, a second print run was made to correct these errors. By this time though the damage had already been done and to this day the error versions appear much more frequently. From the front, corrected booster packs are indistinguishable from the original packs, but on the back the EAN-13 code and ST product certification are different, with the original having an EAN-13 of "4935228 98512 8" and ST of "9" (1999) and the corrected version having an EAN-13 of "4521329 00794 6" and ST of "1" (2001).
+The original Japanese print run had several text errors including missing damage values and misleading attack descriptions. At some point a print run was made to correct these errors, but it's not certain when this happened or how the corrections were distributed. What is known is that in Spring 2001, over a year after the original Japanese release, a second distribution occurred. From the front, booster packs from the first distribution are indistinguishable from those of the second distribution, but on the back the EAN-13 code and ST product certification are different, with the original having an EAN-13 of "4935228 98512 8" and ST of "9" (1999) and the second release having an EAN-13 of "4521329 00794 6" and ST of "1" (2001).
