Release information

In Japan, this card was first awarded to the top three competitors from the Junior League and the Open League in the Victory Battle event at each Battle Festa venue, held at Intex Osaka, Osaka on December 15, 2013, and at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center, Tokyo on December 23, 2013. To progress to the final 'Climax Stage' at the Battle Festa, players had to accumulate as many consecutive wins at the 'Premier Stage' as possible, a prerequisite of which was four consecutive wins at the initial 'Challenge Stage'. When the allocated time for the 'Challenge Stage' ended, the top four players in terms of consecutive 'Premier Stage' wins were eligible to enter the knockout 'Climax Stage'.

The card was awarded again to the top three competitors in each league at each Lizardon Mega Battle event, held at the Pacifico Yokohama, Yokohama on the weekend of May 3-4, 2014, and at Intex Osaka, Osaka on the weekend of May 17-18, 2014. The final round was held on the second day of each weekend, with the top sixteen from each league eligible to compete for entry into the Japan Champion Finals, held at Pokémon Center Osaka on the weekend of June 7-8, 2014.

For the Battle Festa 2014, this card was awarded to the top three competitors from the A League and the B League in the Victory Battle Gym MIX event. All entrants began at the 'First Stage', and could progress to the 'Second Stage' by winning two consecutive battles. Players at the 'Second Stage' became eligible to enter the knockout 'Climax Stage' by achieving another three consecutive wins. The Battle Festa 2014 was held at five locations across Japan: ACT CITY Hamamatsu Exhibition Event Hall, Shizuoka on October 26, 2014; Sunshine City Bunka Kaikan, Tokyo on the weekend of November 1-2, 2014; Kumamoto City Distribution and Information Hall, Kumamoto on November 9, 2014; Intex Osaka, Osaka on November 16, 2014; and Dream Messe Miyagi, Sendai on November 24, 2014.

At the Rayquaza Mega Battle, this card was awarded to the top three competitors from the A League and the B League. Players could qualify for the final stage in two ways. One way was to place in the top three at the Rayquaza Gym Battle or the Rayquaza Pokémon Center Battle events leading up to the tournament, thereby becoming eligible for the main Rayquaza Mega Battle qualifying phase. The top players at this stage then progressed through to the final stage. The second way was to participate in the Rayquaza Mega Battle Last Challenge qualifier held concurrently with the main qualifying phase. Players who won two consecutive battles at the 'First Stage' progressed to the 'Second Stage', and a further three consecutive wins at the 'Second Stage' granted entry to the Rayquaza Mega Battle final stage. Players knocked out at the main qualifying phase could also participate in the Last Challenge qualifier. The Rayquaza Gym Battle was held between March 1 and March 25, 2015 at participating Pokémon Card Gym venues. The Rayquaza Pokémon Center Battle was held at participating Pokémon Centers across two periods for different age categories: between March 28 and April 4, 2015 (all ages), and between March 29 and April 5, 2015 (elementary school students). The Rayquaza Mega Battle and Last Challenge qualifier were held at the Nagoya Trade & Industry Center, Nagoya on May 5, 2015; at Makuhari Messe, Chiba on May 9 and 10, 2015; at the Sapporo Factory, Sapporo on May 23 and 24, 2015; and at Intex Osaka, Osaka on May 31, 2015. The top twelve players from each league were then eligible for entry into the Japan Champion Finals, held at Pokémon Center Osaka on the weekend of June 27-28, 2015.

Each print features a foil stamp with the logo of the event it was awarded at behind the effect text, and all are unnumbered XY-P Promotional cards.
