Why did old Pokemon cards have so little health?
Back in the day, the game designers probably aimed for quicker, more streamlined battles. Lower health means each match doesn't drag out too long. Plus, it's all about the balance. With fewer hit points, players had to strategize more about when to attack or hold back, making the game more exciting.

Old cards reflect the early stage of the game where balance was different. Simple as that.
Power creep, my friend! As the game evolved, so did the Pokemon, literally and figuratively. Newer sets introduced stronger Pokemon with more health to keep the game fresh and competitive. It's just how trading card games roll.
