As a Basic Pokémon that can be played directly from the hand on turn one, Hitmontop occupies a structurally important position within the set's early-game options, and its permanently fixed supply—combined with over 25 years of natural wear from the massive population of Neo Discovery cards that were opened, played, and traded in the early 2000s—ensures that quality raw copies remain a steady target for both set completionists and players of Unlimited format tournaments who still appreciate the creative defensive-offensive duality of the Neo era's most agile Fighting-type Pokémon.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"inline-entity svelte-qcdalo\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCard Number \/ Rarity:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e03\/75 \/ Holo Rare\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCard Type \/ HP \/ Stage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFighting \/ 60 \/ Basic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttack 1:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e[F] Detect\u003cbr\u003eFlip a coin.
