Trivia

Origin

Elite Four member Bertha owns a level 55 female Rhyperior in Pokémon Platinum. The card's artwork, however, depicts a male Rhyperior, which has a longer upper horn than a female does, and contradicts the game's gender difference for Rhyperior. Double Lariat is an attack that first appeared on Ursaring from Neo Discovery. Rock Tumble is an attack that first appeared on Graveler from Neo Revelation. The interior of Bertha's room in Sinnoh's Pokémon League as it appears in Pokémon Platinum is featured in the illustration.
