Tyrogue is a Basic Fighting Pokémon with 60 HP. The card lists level 10. In the Pokédex this is Tyrogue (#236), generation 2 (Johto). The card lists Hitmonlee, Hitmonlee (#106), Hitmonchan, Hitmonchan (#107), and Hitmontop, Hitmontop (#237) under evolves to.

Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.

Tyrogue (#236) has 7 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 7 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2025. The earliest other card is Tyrogue 66/75 in Neo Discovery (2001). That card lists 30 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Miki Tanaka illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. 6 other cards of Tyrogue list a different HP.

Baby Evolution is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may put Hitmonlee, Hitmonchan, or Hitmontop from your hand onto Tyrogue (this counts as evolving Tyrogue) and remove all damage counters from Tyrogue. The attack Gut Blow lists 10+ damage. The cost is Fighting. If the Defending Pokémon is an Evolved Pokémon, this attack does 10 damage plus 20 more damage and Tyrogue does 10 damage to itself. Weakness is Psychic +10. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It is famous for its eagerness to fight and always nurses injuries from challenging larger foes."

I keep a set binder for Legends Awakened, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Legends Awakened set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Tyrogue can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Baby Pokémon. I still need this card.
