A Jumbo version was also included in the box. In Japan, this print was released as one of the S-P Promotional cards and was given to customers who purchased two booster boxes of Amazing Volt Tackle upon its release at participating stores. The set logo is featured on the right side of the artwork on the Japanese print.
