ABOUT THE SET

Gym Heroes kicked off the Gym duology in August 2000, and it's the set where Wizards of the Coast first let you battle as the Gym Leaders themselves — Brock's, Misty's, Lt. Surge's, Erika's, Sabrina's and Blaine's Pokemon, plus a run of Team Rocket cards. At 132 cards it was a big WotC set, sold in 1st Edition packs before the Unlimited print. The headliner is Sabrina's Gengar (14/132), famous as much for its scrubbed artwork — the Japanese graveyard's cross-shaped tombstones were erased for the Western release, leaving a plain background — as for its value. A characterful, story-driven set that still pulls collectors who grew up with the anime's Gym badges.

CollectibleScarcer than Base in 1st Edition, especially the holos. Commons and Unlimited copies are easy; 1st Edition Sabrina's Gengar in high grade is the trophy.

PRINT QUIRKS · WHAT TO LOOK FOR
  • 1
    1st Edition stamp is a small black circular '1' below the character box at the lower-left of the art window; Unlimited has no stamp.
  • 2
    Sabrina's Gengar (14/132) had the Japanese cross-shaped tombstones removed for the Western release, leaving a plain background.
  • 3
    First English set to use 'Owner's' Pokemon (e.g. Brock's Onix, Misty's Seadra), tying cards to specific Gym Leaders and Team Rocket.
GRADING NOTES

1st Edition carries a small black circular '1' stamp at the lower-left, just below the character box on the front of the art window; Unlimited has none. The darker holo borders show edge whitening readily and the foil scratches, so clean high-grade copies of the chase holos carry a premium.
