This is a pretty extreme printing error
Im willing to bet thats not because Japanese kids in October 1996 took particularly good care of that smartly dressed fellow and his faithful Farfetchd, nor is it because considerably more copies were set for grading due to Pokmon Trader being several times more popular than even Lass, the original waifu card
Cards like Koga or Budding Expeditioner will let you bring that specific active Pokemon back into your hand as another way to retreat
When in the 99, the card has the ability to give vigilance counters to Kathril and friends, but outside of that the deck doesnt actually have that many permanents that cost three or less
Some colors excel at ramp, like green, while others arent typically considered one of the most vigorous colors for the task, like white
But I just didn't know how to value the cards from a picture
