Release information
This card was included in the Sword & Shield expansion with artwork by PLANETA Tsuji, first released in the Japanese V Starter Set Fire. It was reprinted as one of the SWSH Black Star Promos with different artwork by 5ban Graphics and was available in the Victini V Battle Deck and the V Battle Deck—Victini vs. Gardevoir from May 7, 2021. The SWSH Black Star Promo print was later released in Japan as a S-P Promotional card and was available as a winner's prize at regional Champion's League events held during the 2021-2022 season. These included the 2022 Kyoto Champion's League, held at the Kyoto Pulse Plaza on October 3, 2021;[1] the 2022 Fukuoka Champion's League, held at Marine Messe Fukuoka, Fukuoka on November 3, 2021;[2] the 2022 Aichi Champion's League, held at the Aichi International Exhibition Center, Tokoname on March 27, 2022;[3] and the 2022 Yokohama Champion's League, held at the Pacifico Yokohama on May 8, 2022.[4] To obtain this prize, players in each League were required to reach certain thresholds. Junior League competitors achieving at least four wins in the qualifying round all received a copy of this print, as did Senior and Master League competitors achieving at least five wins. The Aichi event also hosted an Open League, which had no age restriction and was played using the Extra Regulation format. Open League competitors achieving at least five wins were also awarded this print.[5][6][7][8]
Japanese error copies
The Japanese S-P Promotional print awarded at the Kyoto tournament was printed with the attacks of a different Victini V in error. As a result, no Victini V cards were distributed at the Fukuoka tournament. The error was officially acknowledged in an apology statement uploaded to the official Japanese Pokémon Card website on December 17, 2021. The statement also announced that the error print would be immediately banned across all formats and that eligible players from both the Kyoto and Fukuoka tournaments would have a corrected version mailed to their registered Players Club address.[9] The correct version was given out at subsequent meetings.
