Dewgong

Description

The Pokémon Trading Card Game card Dewgong #3 was released in 2004 as part of the FireRed & LeafGreen base set. Designed by Toshinao Aoki, this Stage 1 Pokémon represents the evolved form of Seel and carries Pokédex number 87 within the game's lore. As a Holo Rare, the card features a distinctive reflective finish that distinguishes it within the set's hierarchy of rarity. In terms of gameplay, Dewgong possesses 80 HP and belongs to the Water type. The card includes the Safeguard ability, which prevents all effects of attacks, including damage, done to Dewgong by the opponent's Pokémon-ex. This defensive mechanic adds strategic depth for collectors who appreciate cards with unique protective effects. The card offers two distinct attacks: Water Cold Breath, which deals 10 damage and puts the defending Pokémon to sleep, and Aurora Beam, which deals 40 damage. With a retreat cost of two, it requires careful management during matches. Collectors often seek out Dewgong #3 for its nostalgic value tied to the early 2000s era of the Pokémon TCG. Owning this card allows enthusiasts to complete set collections or build themed decks centered around Water-type Pokémon. The combination of its classic design, functional abilities, and status as a Holo Rare makes it a staple for serious collectors and casual players alike who value the history of the Pokémon TCG.
