Release information

In the Japanese release, this card's Call Back attack reads "You can't use this attack if your opponent's Bench is full.". In the English release, it reads "You can't use this attack if your Bench is full" instead. It then received an errata to revert the English card's meaning back to what the Japanese print read.

Trivia

Although this Pokémon is level 18, Gastly does not evolve into Haunter until level 25.

Origin

This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Gold, though it is heavily reworded in English.
