Misty's Gyarados 13/132 · Gym Challenge

Misty's Gyarados, Gym Challenge #13

Gym Challenge is a set in the Gym series. It was released on October 16, 2000. The printed size is 132, and the checklist is the same length. Misty's Gyarados is 13/132, in position 13 of 132 on this checklist. Before it is 12 Misty's Golduck, and after it is 14 Rocket's Mewtwo. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Misty's Gyarados is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 100 HP. The card lists level 42. In the Pokédex this is Gyarados (#130), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Misty's Magikarp. In this catalog that name is Magikarp (#129).

Ken Sugimori illustrated this card. The same name is on 1,112 other cards in the catalog.

Gyarados (#130) has 56 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 39 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Gyarados 6/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Gyarados, while this one is Misty's Gyarados. Both list 100 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Ken Sugimori illustrated this one. 51 other cards of Gyarados list a different HP.

Rebellion is listed as Pokémon Power. Whenever Misty's Gyarados attacks, flip 2 coins. If both of them are tails, that attack does nothing. Instead, shuffle Misty's Gyarados and all cards attached to it into your deck. (This power works even if Misty's Gyarados is Confused.) The attack Tidal Wave lists 70 damage. The cost is Water, Water, Water, Water. Weakness is Grass ×2. Resistance is Fighting -30. Retreat cost is 3.

I keep a set binder for Gym Challenge, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Gym Challenge set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Gyarados can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Trainer's Pokémon, Magikarp and Gyarados, Kanto Gym Leaders and their Pokémon, and Misty and her Pokémon. I still need this card.
