Release information

This card was the first of four cards released as part of the Pokémon 10th Anniversary celebrations during 2008-2009. There were five different prints of the card, each with a different illustration by Yuka Morii exclusive to a specific Pokémon Center in Japan. Those who shopped at the Pokémon Center from June 16, 2008 until July 31, 2008 received the Pikachu promotional card until supplies ran out. In addition to the promotional card, patrons also received a handout with a survey to complete and return during the distribution of the second promotional card, Charmander, starting August 22, 2008. The survey had participants choose between Meowth and Squirtle for the distribution of the third promotional card. Squirtle won out, resulting in the production of DPt-P Promo Squirtle.
