Collector Insights

Charity is a Trainer card from the Gym series, featured in the Gym Heroes set released on August 14, 2000. Designed by artist Ken Sugimori, it holds a rarity of Rare and is numbered 99 within the set. The card’s themecolor, #aea73d, reflects its association with the Gym theme. As a Trainer card, Charity attaches to the Active Pokémon, remaining with it unless the Pokémon is Knocked Out. At the end of the player’s turn, Charity returns to their hand unless the Active Pokémon is defeated. When the attached Pokémon attacks and inflicts damage, the player may reduce the damage by any amount, rounded to the nearest 10. This ability allows flexibility in managing battle outcomes during gameplay. The card’s rules emphasize strategic interaction between the Trainer and the Active Pokémon, enhancing tactical options during matches. Its design and function align with the Gym Heroes set’s focus on competitive play and resource management.
