Dark Kadabra 39/82 · Team Rocket

Kadabra is Pokédex #064, generation 1 (Kanto). Dark Kadabra is a Stage 1 Psychic Pokémon with 50 HP. The card lists level 24. The card says it evolves from Abra. In this catalog that name is Abra (#063). The card lists Alakazam, Alakazam (#065) under evolves to.

Dark Kadabra sits at 39/82 in Team Rocket, position 39 of 83. Before it is 38 Dark Jolteon, and after it is 40 Dark Machoke. The set belongs to the Base series. It was released on April 24, 2000. The printed size is 82. This checklist is longer, at 83 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Matter Exchange is listed as Pokémon Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may discard a card from your hand in order to draw a card. This power can't be used if Dark Kadabra is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. The attack Mind Shock lists 30 damage. The cost is Psychic, Psychic. Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for this attack. (Any other effects that would happen after applying Weakness and Resistance still happen.) Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "Some people say that Kadabras are responsible for many of the mysterious events reported in the news."

Kadabra (#064) has 10 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 10 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Kadabra 32/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Kadabra, while this one is Dark Kadabra. That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 50 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 10 other cards of Kadabra list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kagemaru Himeno. I count 656 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Team Rocket set binder is where a full Team Rocket set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Kadabra can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Team Rocket cards. I still need this card.
