    Funny that Beedrill and Butterfree in this set were only printed as **non-holo** rare cards!

      Especially because they were both holo in the Japanese version of the set, “Crossing the Ruins.” 🐝🦋🐝🦋🐝🦋

      IDK why this is the only Neo set that had the dumb holo/non holo double-printing of cards that WOTC did in Fossil, Jungle, TR and the E-Reader sets. Glad that the other 3 Neo sets were printed as normal sets, like they were in Japan.

    The first attack, originally ミラクルりんぷん, should be Miracle Scales. Following right after Miracle Berry in N1, N2 Butterfree’s attack is meant to be an antithesis to that card – inflicting any status condition where Miracle Berry can resolve any. “Miracle” and its miraculous relation to any status condition will go on to become a recurring theme in the TCG. (c.f. Team Aqua Technical Machine 01 for a more thorough comment regarding.)
