A bit of history...

This card was released as a promotional card in the year 2000. It was given out with the purchase of a ticket for the theatrical run of The Power of One in the United States and other countries worldwide at participating cinemas within the first week of release. After the first week of the theatrical run, attendees would only be able to receive a Moltres, Articuno, or Zapdos. This version came sealed in a plastic wrapper together with a teaser card for the Pokémon League.

The Japanese version was included in The Power of One movie pamphlets available to purchase at participating cinemas from July 17, 1999 for as long as stocks lasted. The first Japanese prints of the card featured a speckle Holofoil treatment and misspelled Nintendo in the copyright text on the card border as "Nintedo". A corrected print was released for a very brief time with the same Holofoil as the first print. Then, after the corrected version, a third version was released featuring the same Cosmos Holofoil treatment as the international release. Although subtle, there are differences between the third Japanese print and the international print: the copyright information of the international print is in a different font to the Japanese print and has an additional Wizards copyright. The border pattern on the international print is more pronounced than the Japanese print and does not extend to the card edge due to the wider border.
