Release information

This card was included as both a Regular card and a Full Art card in the Crimson Invasion expansion, first released in the Japanese Ultradimensional Beasts expansion. The Regular print features artwork by take, while the Full Art print features artwork by Megumi Mizutani. A new Full Art print with different artwork by You Iribi was reprinted in the Ultra Prism expansion, first released in the Japanese GX Battle Boost subset. The GX Battle Boost subset also included a Mirror Holofoil version of the Regular print. Another Non Holofoil version of the Regular print was later released in the Japanese GX Ultra Shiny subset. A new print with different artwork by Mana Ibe was released as a Yellow A Alternate card and was awarded to the top 4 competitors of League Challenges held during the Unified Minds Season (August-October 2019). These prints come in 4 variants with either a "1st Place", "2nd Place", "3rd Place, or "4th Place" stamp in the bottom left corner of the artwork. This print originated from the Japanese Sky Legend subset.

Trivia

A ruling effective February 15, 2019 banned this card from the Expanded format due to a pair of these cards enabling an infinite cycle of Supporter cards. This potentially led to stalemates and enabled strategies that negatively impacted the game. It has been then unbanned starting March 5, 2021 since the previous ban of Lt. Surge's Strategy limited its stalling potential.
