Light Dewgong 45/105 · Neo Destiny

Neo Destiny is a set in the Neo series. It was released on 28 February 2002. The printed size is 105. This checklist is longer, at 113 cards. Light Dewgong is 45/105, in position 45 of 113 on this checklist. Before it is 44 Jigglypuff, and after it is 46 Light Flareon. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Light Dewgong is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 80 HP. The card lists level 40. In the Pokédex this is Dewgong (#087), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Seel. In this catalog that name is Seel (#086).

Masako Yamashita illustrated this card. The same name is on 23 other cards in the catalog.

Dewgong (#087) has 18 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 16 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Dewgong 25/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Dewgong, while this one is Light Dewgong. Both list 80 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Masako Yamashita illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 10 other cards of Dewgong list a different HP.

The attack Freezing Breath lists 10 damage. The cost is Water, Water. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed. If tails, the Defending Pokémon is now Asleep. Ice Pillar is another attack lists 40 damage. The cost is Water, Water, Water. Until the end of your opponent's next turn, as long as Light Dewgong is your Active Pokémon, prevent all damage done by attacks to your Benched Pokémon. (Any other effects of attacks still happen.) Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It has an aerodynamic shape that allows it to swim at great speeds. The colder the water gets, the more active it becomes."

I keep a set binder for Neo Destiny, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Neo Destiny set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Dewgong can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
