The Gym Heroes set, released in 2000, was only the fourth set for the Pokémon Trading Card Game (or TCG), but brought numerous innovations to the game. One of these innovations was “Owner’s Pokémon,” which meant that some Pokémon had different stats and abilities, depending on who had trained them. In Gym Heroes, the owners were familiar names from Gym Leaders in the Kanto region (from the original Game Boy Pokémon titles), such as Lt. Surge, Erika, or Brock and Misty, who were also famous as Ash Ketchum’s travelling companions in the Pokémon animated show. Owner’s Pokémon are making a comeback after many years away, making Battle Partners a pretty exciting set, so let’s take a look at all 132 of the cards!

Battle Partners: Secret Rare Card Gallery
If you’re a fan of the Pokémon TCG, you’ll already know that most of the highly sought after cards will be numbered beyond the officially stated number of cards in a set. For example, with Battle Partners having 100 cards in its main set, any cards numbered above 100 are known as Secret Rare cards. Secret Rares are generally alternate art versions of other cards in a set, though they do sometimes feature a few cards from a previous set, albeit with a new type of foil that the card hasn’t been printed in before. Let’s take a look at the Secret Rare cards for Battle Partners, numbered 101-132:
