==Trivia==
*The initial print of the Wizards promo erroneously credited Toshinao Aoki as the illustrator, who illustrated the Japanese promo. Wizards rectified the error, with subsequent prints correctly crediting Naoyo Kimura as the illustrator. However, the change was brought about close to or after the release of the film, so it is likely to assume fewer people received the correct version later into the campaign compared to those who received the misprint earlier.
*The artwork used on the Japanese Unnumbered Promotional print and the Supreme Victors print is part of a {{TCG|combined illustration}} that includes {{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Moltres|21}} and {{TCG ID|Wizards Promo|Zapdos|23}}.
* This card is very similar to {{TCG ID|Pokémon Web|Articuno|45}} from the {{TCG|Pokémon Web}} expansion, with the addition of {{e|Metal}} Weakness, and it uses the same artwork as the Wizards Black Star Promotional print.

Trivia

  • The initial print of the Wizards promo erroneously credited Toshinao Aoki as the illustrator, who illustrated the Japanese promo. Wizards rectified the error, with subsequent prints correctly crediting Naoyo Kimura as the illustrator. However, the change was brought about close to or after the release of the film, so it is likely to assume fewer people received the correct version later into the campaign compared to those who received the misprint earlier.
  • The artwork used on the Japanese Unnumbered Promotional print and the Supreme Victors print is part of a combined illustration that includes Moltres and Zapdos.
  • This card is very similar to Articuno from the Pokémon Web expansion, with the addition of Metal Weakness, and it uses the same artwork as the Wizards Black Star Promotional print.

Origin

Diamond dust is a type of weather that appears in select locations and at select times in the Pokémon games. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Yellow, though it is slightly reworded.
