==Trivia==
*The Phone card promo is slightly longer than a normal trading card, as the print had to adopt the same dimensions as a regular Japanese phone card.
*The Phone card promo is slightly longer than a normal trading card, as the print had to adopt the same dimensions as a regular Japanese phone card. That print utilizes the same stock Sugimori artwork of Zapdos that was later used on the {{TCG ID|GB|Zapdos|1}} Legendary Card from {{Card GB}}.
*Some early prints of the card punch out evolution symbols in the holofoil, leaving behind an area in the picture not covered in holofoil.
