This card was included in the Rebel Clash expansion with artwork by Misa Tsutsui, first released in the Japanese Rebellion Crash expansion. It was reprinted in the Japanese Charizard VMAX Starter Set. It was reprinted again in the Champion's Path expansion with different artwork by Masakazu Fukuda, first released as one of the Japanese S-P Promotional cards. In Japan, this print was one of seven cards available in Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack 2, which was intended to be distributed at Pokémon Card Gym venues throughout March, April, and May 2020; however, these events were among those to be canceled from February 29, 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[1] Despite this, it is evident venues still received packs from The Pokémon Company, hence external knowledge of the cards at the time, and that some venues still distributed them in some way. Events officially resumed from May 23, 2020[2] and packs were distributed until July. The Japanese version of this print features the Pokémon Card Gym logo.
The Rebel Clash print was reprinted, alongside a new print with artwork by Shigenori Negishi featuring the Shiny version of Rolycoly, in the Japanese Shiny Star V subset. The Rebel Clash print was reprinted again in a second version of the Japanese Charizard VMAX Starter Set, available in the VMAX Battle Triple Starter Set from December 4, 2020. The Shiny print was later included in the Shining Fates expansion.
