Brock's Lickitung · Gym Heroes, what to know.
About the Brock's Lickitung card
Numbered 41 of 132 in Gym Heroes, released in August 2000, Brock's Lickitung is an Uncommon, a Basic Colorless-type carrying 80 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Lickitung needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.
Brock is the Rock-type Gym Leader of Pewter City and Ash's longtime traveling companion. Brock's Lickitung is part of that themed lineup.
Illustrated by Ken Sugimori. Sugimori is the lead character designer of Pokémon itself, so his card art carries the tight, on-model look that defined how the creatures appear in the games.

Print variants and how to spot them
Gym Heroes shipped in 1st Edition and Unlimited, with no Shadowless print. The trainer-prefix naming runs across the set, and the 1st Edition Brock's Lickitung carries the Edition 1 stamp and a premium over Unlimited in matching grade.
Grading and condition
Brock's Lickitung grades forgivingly, but the same centering and edge standards apply. Pack-fresh raw copies are easy to find, which makes a clean PSA 10 submission a low-cost way to learn how the cardstock behaves under grading.
