Release date, card count, chase cards, value and how it compares with the Original Series era.
City Gym Decks sits in the Japanese Pokémon TCG's Original Series era as a deck product, released on July 25, 1998 and cataloged under 124 printings. Rather than a booster expansion, it is a deck release built around gym leader themes, and its card list reads that way. The headline cards are Misty's Tears, Sabrina's Gengar and Blaine's Arcanine, with Sabrina, Sabrina's Gaze, Brock, Erika and Misty rounding out the cards that carry the most value. Its identity is the gym leaders themselves, in both their Pokémon and their trainer cards.

There is no layered rarity ladder here: the rarity data lists a single Common tier and no chase-tier cards, so City Gym Decks has no secret cards above a printed count, and its value comes from individual cards. Misty's Tears is the most valuable card in the set, ahead of Sabrina's Gengar and Blaine's Arcanine, with Sabrina and Sabrina's Gaze close behind. The top five cards hold 37 percent of the set's total card value, a moderate concentration that leaves the rest of the card list carrying meaningful weight.
As of October 2026, City Gym Decks holds the highest total card value of the 3 comparable Original Series sets, about equal to the era median, and it ranks 4th across the 110 comparable sets in the whole game. Its single most valuable card, Misty's Tears, ranks 3rd among the era's top cards, and it leads the era in trading activity. It came before Intro Pack (Bulbasaur), which holds similar total value. Its English counterpart is Gym Heroes, which shares 68 cards with it. The Japanese set came first, by 24 months.
