Short version: GL = Gym Leader. Means the card's Pokemon is associated with a specific Gym Leader, making it kinda special!
Honestly, I always thought GL stood for 'Good Luck' as in good luck finding one of these rare cards in your pack! But yeah, it's Gym Leader, which is way less about luck and more about cool themed cards.
