Card History
Lt. Surge's Electabuzz is one of the standout holo rares of Gym Heroes, the first English set built around Gym Leaders and their signature Pokémon rather than wild species alone.
In-Game
This card’s owner, Lt. Surge, is the Vermilion City Gym Leader known as the 'Lightning Lieutenant,' and in the original games he rewards victorious Trainers with the Thunder Badge and a TM for Thunderbolt.
Card History
Lt. Surge made his anime debut in 'Electric Shock Showdown,' the episode that cemented his fearsome reputation by showing Vermilion City's Pokémon Center packed with Pokémon injured after battling him.
Artist
The card was illustrated by Ken Sugimori, Pokémon’s original character designer, which gives this holo the extra nostalgia of being tied directly to the franchise’s foundational visual style.
