Trivia

• Artwork from its various arcade cards is seen on the TCG Move Cards Whirlpool Renewal (07 4th(+)) and Swirling Vortex (Kaku 1st).
• The arcade's effect of this Move is like triggering Move Breaker for all Signs at once, but can only be used by a Water Dinosaur.
• In the arcade game, you have to tie with any move button after losing to use this Move. To signal this Move has become usable, a pair of blue shockwaves will emit from the dinosaur after it has been knocked to the ground by its loss, and the next turn, a columns of water will be circling around its body. Please note that this occurs randomly after losses.
