Dewgong [1st Edition] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Dewgong #25 is one of the original Water-types from the very first English Base Set, making a 1st Edition copy part of Pokémon TCG’s January 9, 1999 debut era.
Set Lore
Because English Base Set 1st Edition cards were printed in the shadowless style, a 1st Edition Dewgong carries one of the most recognizable visual tells of early WotC collecting.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the foundational artists of the original Pokémon TCG, which gives even an Uncommon like Dewgong extra historical appeal to vintage art collectors.
In-Game
Base Set Dewgong is a neat bridge to the video games because both Aurora Beam and Ice Beam are real moves Dewgong can learn in the Pokémon games.
Card History
Dewgong made its anime debut through the Cerulean Gym’s evolved Seel in 'The Misty Mermaid,' tying this icy Stage 1 to one of the earliest Kanto-era episodes collectors grew up with.
