A proverb claims that happiness will come to anyone who can make a sleeping Togepi stand up.

Always bugged me that Togetic wasn’t a basic in the TCG. Because in the actual games Togepi is a baby Pokemon, and can not breed.

It dawned on me recently why Togepi is a basic Pokemon in the Neo era of the TCG. It was for the sake of consistency. Togepi’s first card was a Corocoro Promo released before the Neo sets even came out, and thus before Baby Pokemon were even a thing. This Togepi even has the pre-neo card template. So Togepi was of course a Basic Pokemon card. And since Togepi was already released as a basic Pokemon, they kept it as such once Neo was released.

Wasn’t Togepi’s first card a part of Southern Islands?

Togepi’s menacing, poisonous powers were never spoken of again. In fact, it would later go on to be a pokemon that is explicitly weak to poison, and even its newly introduced final evolution,togekiss, would never be able to learn any poison move beyind the universally available (and trainer-exclusive) toxic.
