#25 Dark Gyarados - Team Rocket (base5)
Dark Gyarados is a Water-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featured in the Team Rocket set from the Base series, released in April 2000. It requires two Colorless Energy to retreat and has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 30. The card’s weaknesses include Grass-type attacks, which deal double damage. Dark Gyarados has the Ice Beam attack, which costs three Water Energy and deals 30 damage, with a 50% chance to paralyze the defending Pokémon. A unique ability called Final Beam activates when Dark Gyarados is knocked out by an attack, flipping a coin to potentially deal 20 damage per attached Water Energy to the attacker. This ability also applies Weakness and Resistance to the attacking Pokémon. The card’s flavor text notes its recent sightings in shallow waters, contrasting its usual deep-ocean habitat. Artist Kagemaru Himeno designed the card, which is classified as Rare.
