Trivia

Like several moves in the TCG, SonicBoom is spelled in CamelCase in the games, but is given only one capital letter here.

Origin

SonicBoom is a move in the Pokémon games that Magneton can learn. Selfdestruct is also a move in the Pokémon games, but Magneton can't learn it. 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.
