Release information

This card was included as both a Regular card and a Full Art card in the Guardians Rising expansion, first released in the Japanese Alolan Moonlight expansion. The Regular print features artwork by Ken Sugimori, while the Full Art print features artwork by Megumi Mizutani. The Regular print was reprinted as a Mirror Holofoil print in the Japanese GX Battle Boost subset. Another Mirror Holofoil print, this time a SM-P Promotional card, was awarded to winners of DeckBuildBattle events held at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues across Japan, which featured different formats each month. This print was available at events using the June format, the Sky-Splitting Charisma Feature Battle, as well as the August format, the Fairy Rise Feature Battle. Both formats required players to construct a Standard-regulation deck using at least 6 cards from the featured expansion or subset. The Sky-Splitting Charisma Feature Battle was held at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues throughout June 2018; the Fairy Rise Feature Battle was held at venues starting August 3, 2018 and ran until September 6, 2018.
