It was reprinted in {{TCG|EX Ruby & Sapphire}} with new artwork by [[Hiromichi Sugiyama]], which is famous for seemingly mangling the intended effect (see above). The change caused quite a stir, as if the effect had been changed from being a "flip for {{TCG ID|Base Set|Gust of Wind|93}}" to "flip for half a {{TCG ID|Gym Challenge|Warp Point|126}}". An errata was ultimately issued so that the card was treated more like the Expedition print with a slight tweak for 2-on-2 play. The reprinted versions that appeared in {{TCG|EX FireRed & LeafGreen}} and {{TCG|EX Unseen Forces}} featured the adjusted text.

Pokémon Reversal was later reclassified in Japan as an {{TCG|Item card}} during the HeartGold & SoulSilver Series, though the English Trainer cards did not adopt this naming convention until after this card's latest print. {{TCG|HeartGold & SoulSilver}} featured new artwork by [[Wataru Kawahara]], and the Japanese {{TCG|Battle Starter Decks}} featured yet another new illustration by [[Hideaki Hakozaki]].
