*This card is popularly known as ''Happy Birthday Pikachu'', in reference to the illustration.

*At the height of the Pokémon phenomenon, the Japanese version was one of the most sought after cards in the world, after a rumor spread by Japanese and American dealers that it had a very limited print run and that within weeks of its initial release, it had sold out. The craze that followed saw the card sell for as much as $500 overseas. After it emerged the card was not that rare, the demand and price declined.

*The Japanese promotional reprint is commonly known as ''Natta Wake Birthday Pikachu'' in reference to the manga book in which it was distributed. This version is considerably rarer than the regular Japanese promotional version, making it one of the most desirable Birthday Pikachu cards printed.

*Interestingly, the Japanese promotional reprint is the only one of the six Natta Wake promos to lack the open book expansion symbol found on the previous five promos.
