Collector Insights

Gyarados is a Water-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless energy. It possesses two attacks: Dragon Rage, which costs three Water energy to deal 50 damage, and Bubblebeam, requiring four Water energy to inflict 40 damage while flipping a coin to potentially paralyze the defending Pokémon. The card resists Fighting-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Grass-type moves with double damage. It was first released in the Base set in 1999 as a Rare Holo card. Artist Mitsuhiro Arita designed the illustration, and the card’s flavor text describes it as a rare, destructive force capable of overwhelming cities. The card’s theme color is a deep blue-gray, aligning with its aquatic theme. Its balanced energy costs and dual attacks make it a versatile choice in gameplay scenarios.

Rarely seen in the wild. Huge and vicious, it is capable of destroying entire cities in a rage.
