This is a transcript of the back of Gordie's [[League Card]]s in [[Pokémon Sword and Shield|Pokémon Sword]].
;Normal League Card
:"Gordie is a young rising star that many suspect will be the {{pkmn|Champion}} someday. Though {{type|Rock}} Pokémon are typically known for being rough and unrelenting, Gordie has worked hard to achieve victory through a refined and graceful battle style. He always tries to keep his fans happy and thus is very popular among the audience. On the other hand, he has the surprising tendency of shutting himself away in the locker room when he is defeated, making postdefeat interviews a rarity. This doesn't bother most of his fans, though, and they see this behavior as endearing."
;Rare League Card
:"Gordie is one of the top {{pkmn|Trainers}} of the [[Galar]] region, both in terms of popularity and skill. His strict training style means that his Gym has few {{tc|Gym Trainer}}s, but he does have quite a fan base. Gordie does his best to make sure his fans are happy, often seen giving out autographs or hosting events. There are currently three photo albums of Gordie, all published through the support of his fan base. This card shows another special photo, taken specifically for this purpose at a photo studio."
