Trivia
- Though normally a great match with all Technique compatibility tabs, its first Japanese version (at least on the release poster) instead had this compatibility: 1-2 (bad), 3-4 (okay), 5-6 (great). The same card's English version had full compatibility.
- Unlike Counterattack Recovery, this Move can work regardless of what Sign your opponent won with, but its healing effect is about half as much.
- This Move is called "Recovery" (かいふく) in the Japanese version, but that name is instead used as the English name of Cryolophosaurus' other healing Move, causing understandable confusion.
- Light Recovery cards feature the restoring glow raining down from above (and a shorter name), while Counterattack Recovery features it shining from the ground (and a longer name).
- Whenever this Move summons Cryolophosaurus, there seems to be a miscalculation of the walking animation of the dinosaur, making its legs continue walking briefly although it had stopped moving forward. This error is also seen with Leaellyn Cure, Counterattack Recovery, and Haste.
- As seen in the Gallery, closely measuring the health bar filling on multiple instances of the Move reveals that the 1200-Strength Pinacosaurus appears to gain a greater percentage fill than the 1000-Strength Szechuanosaurus, which should have more Technique. The apparent reason is the other Moves assigned altering their base Strength to 1550 and 1500 respectively.
- Artwork from one of its various arcade cards is seen on the TCG Move Card Mega Backup (JCL only) (07 1st/1st+).
