Release information
This card was included in the English EX Legend Maker expansion as a Secret Box Topper with artwork by Ryo Ueda, originating as one of the Japanese PCG-P Promotional cards. In Japan, it was available as part of a Meiji Chocolate campaign in October 2005. It was reprinted in Japan as another PCG-P Promotional card with different artwork by the same artist, and was given to participants of the Battle Road Stadium event held at the regional Autumn 2005 Battle Road tournaments. Another version, featuring a gold foil "Battle Road Autumn★2005" stamp below and to the right of the illustration window, was awarded to participants of the same event who won a battle at the third Stage. The Battle Road Stadium comprised six stages: a competitor would play against others in Stages 1 through 5, and then against a Pokémon Card Laboratory employee at the Premium Stage. The English version was released as a Holofoil Nintendo Black Star Promo, and was available in the Value Pack. A Non Holofoil version was later available as an insert in Scandanavian copies of the Pokémon Official Magazine Summer Special, released in 2007.
