Gym: Challenge
Info
Does Sabrina, Koga, Blaine, and
Giovanni have a challenge for you? Well, do they??
So really... what is Gym:
Challenge? Here are the facts:
Release Date:
Gym: Challenge was originally planned to be
released on October 16th. Then it was pushed up to
October 7th. Then it was pushed back to the 16th. Either
way, Sears released it on the 4th. Other Goodies:
Certain cards will be taken out of Gym: Challenge,
namely Imakuni?'s Doduo and _____'s Chansey. These really
don't fit into a "serious" card set and will most likely
be made into promos.
And then there's the infamous
"Koga's Transformation" card (now known as Koga's
Ninja Trick), which had the Bhuddist swastika on
it, which was SADLY mistaken for a Nazi
swastika. This time around, it's been changed to seem
less offensive in the US (to really STUPID people).

Since Gym: Challenge is
a mixed set like Gym: Heroes, it'll have a
different symbol than the Japanese Gym sets.
And this time, WotC fixed the
rarity of cards, so that there aren't any "Common
Rares" like in Heroes, like "Misty's
Tentacool". This may come to something of a relief to
many players out there. Symbol: The symbol
for Gym: Challenge is a stadium type thing, like
the one in Gym: Heroes only backwards and
semi-inverted: What else do I have for you? I've
got: (To view the cards in
this set, along with combos and ruling, click on the
Card Archive link on the
sidebar.)
Set Size:
Gym: Challenge contains 132 cards (126 new cards
and 6 basic Energy). Whoo!
Also Misty's Tears will
also be in this set, with a new picture rather than
the highly-worshiped-by-middle-school-boys "Nude"
version.
