Trivia

This card and Solgaleo & Lunala-GX are the only TAG TEAM cards in which an effect of their GX attack will not activate unless a specific supporter was played beforehand, instead of having a sufficient amount of additional energy cards attached.
This card is the only TAG TEAM where both members have been featured on other TAG TEAM cards: Pikachu & Zekrom-GX and Reshiram & Charizard-GX.

Origin

N, who is featured in each print's illustration, summons Reshiram or Zekrom in Pokémon White and Pokémon Black, respectively, in the final battle with him. The Fabled Flarebolts attack references the Fabled Cave, a Mirage spot in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire where Reshiram and Zekrom can be caught.
