A nostalgic collectible from the first era of the Pokémon TCG, this 1999 “Pokémon Game” (Base Set) holographic card features Water-type Gyarados illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, set against the classic star-pattern holofoil background. In the artwork, Gyarados appears mid-roar amid swirling blue-green waves, with the signature holographic stars shimmering across the scene. With 100 HP and powerful attacks like Dragon Rage and Bubblebeam (which can paralyze), it highlights Gyarados’s strength in early gameplay. As card #6/102 in the original Base Set, it was one of the earliest Gyarados cards printed in the English Pokémon TCG. Its holofoil rarity and classic art make this vintage Gyarados trading card highly sought after by collectors, highlighting the nostalgic appeal of 90s Pokémon cards.
