Trivia
In Mysterious Treasures, an almost-identical Chansey card was released; however, due to the HP, weakness, resistance, Retreat Cost and self-infliction from Double-edge varying, it cannot be considered a reprint.
Origin
Double-Edge is a move in the Pokémon games that Chansey can learn. Its effect is similar to the attack on the card, as it is a damage-dealing move that deals recoil damage to the user. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
