Release information

This card was included in the Temporal Forces expansion with artwork by Teeziro, first released in the Japanese Wild Force expansion. In Japan, it was reprinted as a Mirror Holofoil SV-P Promotional card and was distributed as part of a First Entry Campaign. Between January 26 and April 8, 2024, participating Pokémon Card Gym venues held a stamp rally that incorporated Gym Battle, New Release Battle, Deck As Is Battle, Terastal Battle, and Extra Battle Day events. People that participated in any of these events for the first time during the campaign were given a stamp card; those that presented the card in a subsequent eligible event would get it stamped. Those that earned at least one stamp were given a promotional Buddy-Buddy Poffin card; those earning at least two stamps were given a copy of either this promotional print or a promotional print of Miraidon. People were also given a ticket at two stamps that could be redeemed for the Koraidon/Miraidon they did not get by participating in one more event.[1]

An SVP Black Star Promotional print of this card with new artwork by Anesaki Dynamic was one of the Prerelease promos for Temporal Forces, available in the Temporal Forces Build & Battle Box. A print with a gold foil "Staff" stamp was given to those overseeing Prerelease Tournaments. A Non Holofoil version of the Temporal Forces card was also included in the Temporal Forces Build & Battle Box.

Three Cosmos Holofoil versions of this card with different stamps in the bottom right corner of the artwork were given away with eligible Pokémon Trading Card Game purchases at participating stores in various countries starting March 22, 2024. Variants featuring a red GameStop logo were available at GameStop stores in the United States and Canada with a $15 minimum purchase.[2]

Variants featuring the Temporal Forces expansion logo were available at WHSmith high street stores in the United Kingdom with a purchase of £15 or more. In France, different King Jouet stores across the country were randomly allocated Koraidon or Miraidon cards to give away with purchases.[3] In the Netherlands and Belgium, Game Mania stores gave away either Koraidon or Miraidon with a €20 purchase.[4][5] The two cards were also available from April 1, 2024 in-store and online from ToyChamp in the same countries, and were given away with a €25 purchase.[6][7] In Italy, it was given away at participating GameStop stores with a €25 purchase until September 12, 2024.[8] It was also scheduled to be given away at participating retailers in Germany and Switzerland; at Fnac stores in Portugal; at Toys "R" Us stores in Spain; and at Lehtipiste, P- Kiosk, and other hobby shops in Nordic territories.[9]

Variants featuring an EB Games logo were distributed in Australia and New Zealand with purchases worth at least a $20 and $15 respectively at participating EB Games stores or through their online shop.[10][11]
