SLOWPOKE CARDS GUIDE (JP VER.?How do you tell Slowpoke cards apart?Check the bottom corner. Slowpoke’s 1997–2000 cards have no set number, only the Pokédex No. 079 — tell them apart by the set symbol, the level and the “Sabrina’s” name. The 1997 Playmat promo is unnumbered; its 2001 Pokémon Web reprint is numbered 012/048. On 151, the Master Ball Mirror has Master Balls in the foil — don’t confuse it with the Poké Ball Mirror, which has plain Poké Balls.)

FIRST SLOWPOKE · MAY 1997?Slowpoke (ヤドン) first appeared on an unnumbered promo packed with the official TCG playmats from May 2, 1997 — weeks before Mystery of the Fossils (June 21, 1997).
