Gym Heroes Card List

Q: How many cards are in Gym Heroes?

Gym Heroes has 132 cards: 19 holo rares at numbers 1–19, 23 rares, 42 uncommons and 48 commons. It released in English on August 14, 2000.

Q: What is Gym Heroes?

The first of the two Gym sets, and the first time Wizards printed the Kanto Gym Leaders’ own Pokémon — Brock’s, Misty’s, Lt. Surge’s and Erika’s. It is one half of a pair: Gym Challenge followed two months later.

Q: Does Gym Heroes have a 1st Edition?

Yes. The Edition 1 stamp ran all the way to Neo Destiny in 2002, so every Gym card exists in 1st Edition and Unlimited.

Q: Is there a Shadowless Gym Heroes?

No. That is a Base Set distinction, and by August 2000 the Shadowless window had been closed for over a year.

Q: Does Gym Heroes have reverse holos?

No. Reverse holos do not exist before Legendary Collection, 2002.

Q: How do I tell a 1st Edition Gym Heroes card?

The Edition 1 stamp outside the lower-left of the illustration box, then the Gym Heroes set symbol beside the card number. On Trainer and Energy cards there is no illustration window, so the stamp and the symbol are the whole test.

Gym Heroes is the first of the two Gym sets — 132 cards released August 14, 2000, and the first time Wizards printed the Gym Leaders’ own Pokémon: Brock’s, Misty’s, Lt. Surge’s and Erika’s. 19 holo rares sit at numbers 1–19, with Blaine’s Moltres #1 and Sabrina’s Gengar #14 carrying the set. Two printings, 1st Edition and Unlimited — and no reverse holos, because those do not exist until 2002.
