Description
Feraligatr card number 5 stands as a key component of the 2000 Neo Genesis Pokémon Trading Card Game set. This Stage 2 Water-type Pokémon evolves from Croconaw and carries the Holo Rare treatment, making it a sought-after piece for collectors focusing on the Neo Genesis subset. The card is illustrated by Ken Sugimori, whose artwork defines the visual identity of this early era of the franchise. Beyond its collectible status, this card offers distinct gameplay capabilities. With 120 HP, Feraligatr utilizes the Downpour ability, allowing players to discard Water Energy cards from their hand to activate special effects. Its primary attack, Riptide, deals damage based on the number of Water Energy cards in the discard pile, shuffling them back into the deck after use. This mechanic encourages strategic resource management during play. For investors and hobbyists, the Neo Genesis release represents a foundational period in Pokémon TCG history. Collectors often target specific card numbers to complete their sets, and Feraligatr #5 fills a crucial spot in the Neo Genesis sequence. The combination of its vintage year, iconic character, and rare holo finish ensures its continued relevance in the secondary market. Whether you are building a comprehensive Neo Genesis collection or seeking high-quality examples of early Pokémon cards, this product offers a tangible connection to the game's legacy.

Card Text
Abilities, attacks, oracle text, and flavor text printed on the card.
Ability: Downpour
As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may discard a Water Energy card from your hand. This power can't be used if Feraligatr is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
Attack: Riptide (10+)
Does 10 damage plus 10 damage times the number of Water Energy cards in your discard pile. Then, shuffle all Water Energy cards from your discard pile into your deck.
It is hard for it to support its own weight out of water, so it gets down on all fours. But it moves fast.
