Release information

Sword & Shield Series

This card was first released in each of the Japanese V Starter Sets. The English print was first released in the Sword & Shield expansion as a Holofoil, along with Full Art and Secret Rainbow Rare prints. The Regular print features artwork by Yusuke Ohmura, while the Full Art and Secret prints feature artwork by kirisAki. All three Sword & Shield prints originate from the Japanese Sword expansion. Non Holofoil versions of the Regular print were included in the Sword & Shield and Rebel Clash Build & Battle Boxes as well as every Theme Deck of the Sword & Shield Series.

In Japan, the Regular print was reprinted as a Non Holofoil in the Sword & Shield Premium Trainer Box, in the Charizard & Grimmsnarl VMAX Starter Sets, and in each of the V Starter Decks. A S-P Promotional print was also awarded to players who had accumulated at least one Championship Point over the course of the 2019-2020 season, which was curtailed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Eligible events included the Tokyo and Aichi 2020 Champion's League tournaments plus City Leagues, Trainer's Leagues, and Station Leagues that were completed before restrictions were introduced. Copies of this print began to be distributed in mid-September 2020. The Regular print was reprinted as a Holofoil in the Champion's Path expansion and in the Japanese Shiny Star V subset, and again as a Non Holofoil in the Japanese Single Strike & Rapid Strike Premium Trainer Boxes, Sword & Shield Family Pokémon Card Game set, and Zacian & Zamazenta vs Eternatus Special Deck Set. A new print with artwork by Hideki Ishikawa featuring Professor Juniper was included in the Shining Fates expansion, first released in the Japanese Venusaur & Blastoise VMAX Starter Sets. This print also replaced the Regular Professor Magnolia print in a second version of the Charizard VMAX Starter Set from the VMAX Battle Triple Starter Set. Holofoil versions of this Professor Juniper print were also included in the V Battle Deck—Victini vs. Gardevoir, the V Battle Deck—Rayquaza vs. Noivern, and in both of the Japanese High-Class Decks.

Another new print with artwork by Yusuke Kozaki featuring Professor Willow was released in the summer of 2021 around the world as part of a promotion to celebrate Pokémon GO's fifth anniversary, the 25th anniversary of the Trading Card Game, and as the first collaboration between Pokémon GO and the TCG. Each individual card had a special promotional code printed below its effect that allowed players to participate in Special Research in Pokémon GO.^[1][2]

Regular and Full Art prints depicting Professor Oak were included in the special Celebrations expansion. The Regular print features artwork by KIYOTAKA OSHIYAMA, while the Full Art print features artwork by Ken Sugimori. These cards were later released as part of the Japanese 25th Anniversary Collection. A Full Art print illustrated by Yuu Nishida featuring Professor Juniper was released as part of the Japanese VMAX Climax subset. This print was subsequently available as a SWSH Black Star Promo in the Professor Juniper Premium Tournament Collection from May 20, 2022. This product also included Cosmos Holofoil versions of the Regular Professor Juniper print.

Another print featuring Professor Rowan with artwork by Sanosuke Sakuma was included in the Japanese Start Deck 100 and could be obtained in Non Holofoil and Mirror Holofoil versions. Holofoil and Non Holofoil Professor Rowan prints were also released in the Japanese Star Birth expansion and VSTAR Premium Trainer Box, respectively. The Holofoil print was later included in the Brilliant Stars expansion and Non Holofoil prints could be found in the Brilliant Stars Build & Battle Box and V Battle Deck—Lycanroc vs. Corviknight. In Japan, Non Holofoil Professor Rowan prints were reprinted in both VSTAR Starter Sets; Mirror Holofoil prints were reprinted in the Start Deck 100 CoroCoro Comic Version, in both of the VSTAR & VMAX High-Class Decks, and in the Charizard VSTAR vs Rayquaza VMAX Special Deck Set. Full Art and Rainbow Rare Professor Willow prints illustrated by Yusuke Kozaki were included in the Pokémon GO expansion and Japanese subset of the same name. The Professor Rowan Regular print was reprinted, alongside a Professor Rowan Full Art print with artwork also by Sanosuke Sakuma, in the Japanese VSTAR Universe subset. The Full Art print was later released in the special Crown Zenith expansion outside Asia.

Scarlet & Violet Series

Professor's Research was given two new Holofoil prints in the Scarlet & Violet expansion featuring the two Professors from Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, Professor Sada and Professor Turo. Both prints have artwork by kirisAki. The 189/198 print featuring Professor Sada was released as a Holofoil card in the Japanese Scarlet ex expansion, and as a Non Holofoil card in the ex Starter Set Sprigatito & Lucario ex and ex Starter Set Quaxly & Mimikyu ex. The 190/198 print featuring Professor Turo was released as a Holofoil card in the Japanese Violet ex expansion, and as a Non Holofoil card in the ex Starter Set Fuecoco & Ampharos ex, the ex Starter Set Pikachu ex & Pawmot, and the Premium Trainer Box ex. Professor Sada and Professor Turo were also printed as Full Art ultra rare cards with artwork by kirisAki in the Scarlet & Violet expansion. Professor Sada originated from the Japanese Scarlet ex expansion; Professor Turo originated from the Japanese Violet ex expansion. Outside Asia, Non Holofoil versions of both Regular prints were first available in the Scarlet & Violet Build & Battle Box.

The Regular Professor Sada print (numbered 021/SV-P) and Professor Turo print (numbered 022/SV-P) were also printed as Japanese SV-P Promotional cards, and were two of nine cards that could be found in 2023 Endorsed Independent Event Trainers Packs. Certified Event Organizers distributed these packs at events they oversaw in January 2023. These prints feature the Event Organizer logo in the bottom right corner of their respective illustrations. These prints were later available in 2024 Endorsed Independent Event Trainers Packs, which began to be distributed by Event Organizers at events from January 2024.

In Japan, the Regular prints of Professor Sada and Professor Turo were subsequently reprinted many times. The Professor Sada card was available again in four of the standard ex Start Decks released on July 7, 2023—the Grass Decidueye ex Start Deck, the Water Greninja ex Start Deck, the Fighting Koraidon ex Start Deck, and the Darkness Houndoom ex Start Deck—as well as the secret Dragon-type Centered Deck initially exclusive to Random ex Start Decks. The Professor Turo card was similarly available in the standard Fire Victini ex Start Deck, Lightning Miraidon ex Start Deck, Psychic Clefable ex Start Deck, and Metal Melmetal ex Start Deck, plus the secret Colorless-type Centered Deck. The secret decks were later sold separately as the Tera Dragonite ex Start Deck and the Tera Greedent ex Start Deck from November 24, 2023.

Two Japanese products released on July 28, 2023 included both prints: the Ruler of the Black Flame Deck Build Box and the 2023 Pokémon World Championships Yokohama Deck: Pikachu. Copies in the World Championships Deck were printed on Mirror Holofoil paper. In Japan, Non Holofoil prints were subsequently available in the Terastal Starter Sets from September 22, 2023—the Professor Sada variant was included in the Terastal Starter Set Skeledirge ex, while the Professor Turo variant was included in the Terastal Starter Set Mewtwo ex. Non Holofoil prints of both designs were also included in the Venusaur & Charizard & Blastoise Special Deck Set ex, released on November 10, 2023, while the Shiny Treasure ex subset, released on December 1, 2023, included Holofoil versions of both designs. The Shiny Treasure ex reprints prompted both to be included in the Paldean Fates expansion outside Asia.

A pair of Japanese Starter Deck & Build Sets was released on January 26, 2024—copies of the Ancient Koraidon ex Starter Deck & Build Set included the Professor Sada print; copies of the Future Miraidon ex Starter Deck & Build Set included the Professor Turo print. Both artworks were featured in the four decks of the Japanese Pokémon Card Game Battle Academy, which was released on March 8, 2024. The Sprigatito ex Deck and Lucario ex Deck included the Professor Sada print, while the Pikachu ex Deck and Greninja ex Deck included the Professor Turo print. Each of these cards also has a colored silhouette of the eponymous Pokémon to signify which deck they belong to. Both prints were also available in the May 17, 2024 Battle Master Decks: the Terastal Charizard ex deck has the Professor Sada print, while the Chien-Pao ex deck has the Professor Turo print. The Stellar Miracle Deck Build Box was available from July 19, 2024 and included both designs. The two were also available in the Stellar Tera Type Starter Sets from August 30, 2024—copies of Professor Sada were included in the Sylveon ex deck, while copies of Professor Turo were included in the Ceruledge ex deck.

The Professor Sada and Professor Turo prints were also reprinted as two of the eight SV-P Promotional cards available in Pokémon Card Gym Promo Card Pack 7, which was distributed at Pokémon Card Gym venues able to do so from July 19, 2024.^[3] These prints feature the Pokémon Card Gym logo.

The Japanese Generations Start Decks introduced nine new prints of Professor's Research cards, depicting Professors from each of the nine generations of Pokémon games extant at the time. Hideki Ishikawa, Teeziro, and Taira Akitsu illustrated three of these cards each. Internationally, four cards—those depicting Professors Oak, Elm, Rowan, and Sycamore—were released in the special Prismatic Evolutions expansion, while the Professor Sada print was released in the Journey Together expansion. In Japan, the Professor Sada print was reprinted in the Battle Partners Deck Build Box, the Professor Birch print was reprinted in the ex Starter Set Steven's Beldum & Metagross ex, the Professor Magnolia print was reprinted in the ex Starter Set Marnie's Morpeko & Grimmsnarl ex, and the Professor Juniper print was reprinted in the Black Bolt expansion in all regions.
