Tropical Wind Card Details

Use the set name and collector number together when comparing listings. Tropical Wind 26 / 40 belongs to Nintendo Black Star Promos, a NP series release from October 1, 2003. That combination distinguishes this printing from cards with the same character name in other expansions.

What Is On This Card?

Flip a coin. If heads, remove 2 damage counters from each Active Pokémon (remove 1 damage counter if a Pokémon has only 1). If tails, each Active Pokémon is now Asleep.

How To Research This Printing

Start with the image, Nintendo Black Star Promos set name, and 26 / 40 collector number. Those identifiers matter more than the character name alone because the Pokémon TCG can reuse names across reprints, promos, alternate artwork, and later expansions.

Next, match the finish and condition. A holofoil, reverse holofoil, unlimited, or first-edition listing may carry a different reference price even when it belongs to the same card printing. Grading adds another layer: raw marketplace references should not be treated as prices for PSA, Beckett, or CGC slabs.

Finally, compare the visible update date with current marketplace listings and recent sold results. MonZap gives you a fast catalog reference, set context, and scanner workflow, while the linked marketplaces help you check what is available right now.
