Hypno and Porygon Old Back Pokemon Cards Guide (Team Rocket, PMCG4)

Hypno and Porygon Old Back Pokemon Cards Guide (Team Rocket, PMCG4)

A Hypno Pokemon card and a Porygon card share the Old Back Team Rocket expansion pack on our store: Hypno as PMCG4 No.097 and Porygon as PMCG4 No.137, both from Expansion Pack “Team Rocket”. This guide covers what each listing states, what the official database does verify about the two species, and the dated SNKRDUNK asks.

The official Japanese card database does not list either Old Back print, so the card-level details of these two prints are not attributed here beyond what our listings print. The species facts come from the database’s modern Hypno (スリーパー) and Porygon (ポリゴン) prints.

Key Takeaways

We offer the Hypno Old Back [PMCG4 No.097] as a PSA 10 back order at ¥74,256 (~$482) and the Porygon Old Back [PMCG4 No.137] at ¥71,400 (~$464) — both sourced to order; the product pages show the current terms. The official database does not list these prints; the number, set and grade are as printed on our listed copy.

Hypno and Porygon Facts from the Official Database

The database lists Hypno as スリーパー. Its SV6a 017/064 print, illustrated by Masako Tomii, is a Stage 1 Pokemon with 110 HP and an attack printed 「はくちゅうむ」 for 80 damage. The evolution line reads スリープ (Drowzee), スリーパー (Hypno). The Pokedex text gives Pokedex No.097, the さいみんポケモン (Hypnosis Pokemon), 1.6 m and 75.6 kg, and says, rendered in English, that it always swings a pendulum at a set rhythm and that anyone who comes close somehow becomes sleepy.

The database lists Porygon as ポリゴン. Its SV4M 048/066 print, illustrated by Taiga Kayama, is a Basic Pokemon with 60 HP and an attack printed 「データはじき」 for 10 damage. The evolution line reads ポリゴン (Porygon), ポリゴン2 (Porygon2), ポリゴンZ (Porygon-Z), with a Porygon-Z GX listed as a later form. The Pokedex text gives Pokedex No.137, the バーチャルポケモン (Virtual Pokemon), 0.8 m and 36.5 kg, and says, rendered in English, that in recent years it has been very active in cyberspace, going around checking for suspicious data.

These are the values of the modern prints only. The type symbols on those prints are Psychic (超) for Hypno and Colorless (無) for Porygon. The card numbers on our two listings, No.097 and No.137, match the Pokedex numbers above.

How to Read These Listings

Each Old Back listing gives a card name, a set code with number and a grade. Ours read “Hypno”, “PMCG4 No.097” and “PSA 10”, and “Porygon”, “PMCG4 No.137” and “PSA 10”. SNKRDUNK uses the same set code and numbers for the Team Rocket prints, which is how the entries can be matched by listing name.

Because Porygon appears in several Old Back sets, the set code matters. SNKRDUNK also lists Porygon under [neo4 No.137], and a card named ナツメのポリゴン (Sabrina’s Porygon) under [PMCG-GYM3 No.137] and [PMCG-G2 No.137]. Those are separate listings from the Team Rocket print, and the number alone does not identify which one you are looking at.

Regulation marks: the official regulation page says the mark appears on cards from the Sun & Moon series onward, and that Standard uses cards marked H, I or J from January 23, 2026. A PMCG-era print therefore has no mark to read and is not in the current Standard regulation. SNKRDUNK’s names carry a ★ after わるいスリーパー and a ● after ポリゴン; we do not turn those symbols into rarity tiers. For more on the era, see our Japanese Old Back Pokemon cards guide, the vintage Japanese Pokemon cards guide and our Giovanni’s Machamp Old Back guide.

PSA 10 designates Gem Mint condition per PSA’s published grading standards; see our PSA 10 meaning guide, and our condition guide for raw and PSA 10 condition.

Are these cards legal in the Standard format?
