5 facts about this card
Slowpoke #204 is the Illustration Rare version of the Scarlet & Violet base-set Slowpoke, giving this sleepy Basic Pokémon a full-art showcase in the very first main Scarlet & Violet expansion released on March 31, 2023.
Official Scarlet & Violet set documentation lists Slowpoke as card 204 and marks it as an Illustration Rare, placing it among the expansion’s early SV-era collector chase cards.
This card’s flavor text directly echoes Slowpoke’s long-running Pokédex identity as a Pokémon that is 'always vacantly lost in thought' and 'good at fishing with its tail,' a trait repeated across multiple game generations including Pokémon Violet.
In the anime, Ash’s Pokédex describes Slowpoke in EP066 as the 'Dopey Pokémon' whose specialty is fishing with its tail, matching the laid-back personality this Illustration Rare celebrates.
Slowpoke’s mellow image became strong enough to inspire an official Pokémon music video called 'Slowpoke Song,' showing how this famously zoned-out Kanto Pokémon grew into a fan-favorite cultural mascot beyond the games.
