Collector Insights
Minion of Team Rocket is a Trainer card from the Gym series, released as part of the Gym Heroes set on August 14, 2000. Designed by artist Ken Sugimori, it is classified as an Uncommon rarity card. The card’s primary function is governed by a rule that involves flipping two coins, with specific outcomes based on the results. If both coins land heads, the player can choose an opponent’s Benched Pokémon and return it along with all attached cards to their hand. If either coin is tails, the player’s turn ends immediately, preventing any attacks for the turn. The card’s thematic color scheme aligns with the set’s overall design, featuring a gold tone represented by the hex code #c2a43e. It does not include any attacks, resistances, weaknesses, or retreat costs, focusing instead on its unique interaction mechanics. This card exemplifies the strategic depth of the Gym Heroes set through its conditional effect and player-driven outcomes.
