5 facts about this card
Card History
Base Set Gyarados stands out as one of the original holo rares of the Pokémon TCG, and its attacks, Dragon Rage and Bubblebeam, were both lifted directly from moves Gyarados could learn in the early video games.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the founding visual architects of the Pokémon TCG who has worked on the game since its prototype era, giving Base Set Gyarados true first-generation pedigree.
In-Game
Gyarados’s entire identity is collector catnip because its evolution from weak Magikarp is rooted in the Chinese Dragon Gate legend, where a carp’s perseverance is rewarded by transformation into a dragon.
Cultural Impact
Gyarados became even more iconic in the games thanks to the unforgettable Red Gyarados encounter at the Lake of Rage in Pokémon Gold and Silver, cementing it as one of the franchise’s most memorable power reveals.
Set Lore
This exact Base Set artwork was important enough to be reprinted in both Base Set 2 and Legendary Collection, a sign of how enduring this early holo image became for WotC-era collectors.
