Psyduck 65/82 Pokémon Team Rocket Raw

Psyduck (65/82) from the Team Rocket expansion is a nostalgic and iconic addition to any Pokémon TCG collection. As a Common Basic Pokémon card in the Water type, this vintage piece hails from the 5th expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, originally released in April 2000. Featuring the unmistakable artwork of Mitsuhiro Arita, the card captures Psyduck in its classic distressed pose, clutching its head as if battling a constant headache. This 1st Edition print is particularly sought after by collectors, marking it as part of the early era of the TCG when Team Rocket’s dark-themed cards first emerged, adding a unique flavor to the game’s evolving storyline.

The card’s gameplay mechanics reflect its simple yet strategic role in battle. With 50 HP and a single-color retreat cost, Psyduck is easy to play and manage in deck builds. Its first attack, Dizziness, allows the player to draw a card, offering valuable hand replenishment. Its second move, Water Gun (20+), deals 20 base damage plus an additional 10 for each Water Energy attached—capped at +20 extra damage—making it a flexible option in the early to mid-game. While not the most powerful Pokémon, its utility and charm have cemented its status among fans and competitive players alike.
