Hello,
I bought the GBA game "The powerpuff girls: Him and Seek" in an
italian store.

The box: barcode says " 5 060031 062731 " and the back of the box
shows a tag saying "AGB P AP5P", together with a description of the
game in French, Spanish and Italian.

Inside the box,  the manual is printed in French, German and Italian.
The manual has been printed in UK and displays the code
"AGB-AP5P-EUR".

The cartridge contains English, German, French and Spanish versions of
the game.

There is any reason not to have an italian version of this game,
having this language been used in both box and inside manual ?

Any way to understand more by product code(s) ?

T.I.A. and Greetings

No, there's no way to understand the languages of the game from the product
code. But if you look on the front of the game box, you should always find a
list of the languages available for the in-game text.... if italian is among
them, you will see something like TESTO A SCHERMO IN ITALIANO.
If, on the other hand, you see something like "Rom is in English only", you know
what to expect, even if the description of the game on the back cover is in more
languages.

Gameboy product codes are just simple identifiers.

AGB Axxy

AGB is just Nintendo's way of saying that the product is for the
gameboy advance (GCN games use a DOL prefix in reference to it's
development name, dolphin).

All games start with an A, followed by an archaic 2 letter/number ID
that is unique to that software title.  The last digit denotes the
territory for which it is designed.  J for Japan, E for North America,
and P for Europe.
