Staryu [1st Edition] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Set Lore
Staryu #65 is part of Base Set, the first main expansion of the Pokémon TCG in English, which gave this humble Common a place in the hobby’s original 102-card foundation.
Card History
Staryu is tightly linked to Misty in the anime, where Misty’s Staryu debuted in "Clefairy and the Moon Stone," making any vintage Staryu card feel connected to one of the series’ signature Water-types.
In-Game
In the original games, Misty’s Cerulean Gym team includes a Staryu, so this Base Set card echoes one of the very first Gym battles many Game Boy players remember from Pokémon Red and Blue.
Card History
This card’s flavor text comes straight from Staryu’s early Pokédex identity as a mysterious Pokémon that can regenerate lost appendages, giving even a one-attack Common some classic Gen 1 mystique.
Artist
Illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi, this card also has a fun vintage-print quirk noted by collectors: the English Base Set artwork appears rotated compared with its Japanese counterpart.
