Release information

This card was included as a Regular card and a Full Art illustration rare card in the 151 expansion, first released in the Japanese Pokémon Card 151 subset. The Regular print features artwork by Yuu Nishida, while the Full Art illustration rare print features artwork by Yoriyuki Ikegami. Starting September 22, 2023, a Cosmos Parallel Holofoil variant of the 151 Regular print with a "Scarlet & Violet—151" stamp in the bottom right corner of the artwork was given away at participating Best Buy stores in the United States with any 151 product purchase.[1][2] A Cosmos Parallel Holofoil variant without any additional logos was later made available in Costco 151 Mini Tin 5-Packs from around early October 2024.

The Regular print was included, along with a Full Art print with new artwork by Orca, in the Japanese Venusaur & Charizard & Blastoise Special Deck Set ex. The Full Art print was released in Indonesia and Thailand on January 26, 2024 as part of a promo pack available with every purchase of one Shiny Treasure ex booster box. This Full Art print was later included as an illustration rare card in the Stellar Crown expansion outside Asia.
