128 of the 132 Japanese cards are matched to an English card by set and number in our records. The Japanese set carries 58 fewer cards than the English one, and neither is a translation of the other: the English set keeps its own numbering, and the English wording is taken from the English printing.
Our records match no English card to these 4:
- Exchange Ticket とりかえチケット (090/100, U)
- Spike Energy スパイクエネルギー (100/100, U)
- N’s Zorua Nのゾロア (108/100, AR)
- Spike Energy スパイクエネルギー (132/100, UR)
That is a statement about our data, not proof that no English printing exists.
Sources and scope
Packaging, price and pack contents: 拡張パック「バトルパートナーズ」 — pokemon-card.com/products (official product index).
Card list, numbering, rarity marks, types, stages and illustrator credits: read from the almanac's card records for this set, one record per card. Nothing on this page is typed by hand; the counts are recomputed from those records each time the page is built.
Where a card also exists in English: the English printing supplies the wording of the English name. The Japanese line stays as printed on the Japanese card and is not machine-translated.
Not on this page, on purpose: a generation label, a current market price, a stock status, or a number of packs per box where the official page does not state one. Those are left out rather than estimated.
