This card comes from EX Team Rocket Returns, the November 8, 2004 English release that brought Team Rocket back "with a vengeance" and introduced Pokémon ☆ to the EX era.
Card History
Its effect is a wonderfully sneaky bit of Rocket design, devolving one of your own Evolved Pokémon and then immediately replacing that top stage from your deck, making it feel like a mid-battle swap only Team Rocket would try.
Artist
Katsura Tabata illustrated Surprise! Time Machine, and this card sits alongside other Rocket Gang Strikes Back Trainers in Tabata’s portfolio from the same release, giving the set’s gadget cards a consistent visual identity.
Set Lore
For set builders, Surprise! Time Machine is part of the 96–109 Trainer-and-Energy stretch of the official EX Team Rocket Returns checklist, the section where Rocket’s tricks and tech really define the expansion’s personality.
