Pokémon: Slowpoke Series: Base Set Set: Team Rocket Card Number: 67 Rarity: Common Condition: N/A Grade: Raw Year: 2000 Illustrator: Sumiyoshi Kizuki Slowpoke (67/82) from the Team Rocket expansion is a nostalgic and iconic card for Pokémon TCG collectors and fans of the franchise’s early days. As a Basic Psychic-type Pokémon, this 1st Edition print stands out for its connection to one of the most memorable villainous factions in Pokémon history—Team Rocket. Released in April 2000, the Team Rocket set introduced a darker, edgier tone to the TCG, and Slowpoke’s inclusion reflects the era’s unique charm. Despite its seemingly sleepy demeanor, this card captures a moment when even the most laid-back Pokémon were drawn into Team Rocket’s schemes, making it a fun and conversation-starting piece for any collection. In gameplay, Slowpoke may not be the most powerful contender, but its abilities reflect its quirky personality. With 50 HP and a simple Retreat Cost of one Colorless Energy, it’s an accessible early-game card. Its first attack, Afternoon Nap, allows players to search their deck for a Psychic Energy and attach it directly to Slowpoke—perfect for setting up stronger evolutions like Slowbro or Slowking. The second move, Headbutt, deals a modest 10 damage, embodying the Pokémon’s gentle but persistent nature. While not a battle powerhouse, this card’s strategic utility and nostalgic appeal make it a beloved choice for themed decks and vintage play. Beyond gameplay, the Slowpoke (67/82) Team Rocket card is a piece of Pokémon history. Illustrated by Sumiyoshi Kizuki, the artwork shows Slowpoke in a relaxed pose, staying true to its name and personality. As a Common card in the 1st Edition set, it’s highly collectible, especially in Near Mint or better condition. Whether you're completing a Team Rocket set, building a retro collection, or just love the charm of classic Pokémon cards, this Slowpoke is a must-have. Its rising value and enduring popularity among fans ensure it remains a staple in the world of Pokémon TCG collecting.
