Dark Vaporeon 9/110 · Legendary Collection

Vaporeon is Pokédex #134, generation 1 (Kanto). Dark Vaporeon is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 60 HP. The card lists level 28. The card says it evolves from Eevee. In this catalog that name is Eevee (#133).

Dark Vaporeon sits at 9/110 in Legendary Collection, position 9 of 110. Before it is 8 Dark Slowbro, and after it is 10 Flareon. The set belongs to the Other series. It was released on May 24, 2002. The printed size is 110, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

The attack Bite lists 30 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Whirlpool is another attack lists 20 damage. The cost is Water, Water, Colorless. If the Defending Pokémon has any Energy cards attached to it, choose 1 of them and discard it. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "A Pokémon capable of controlling water, so it is capable of creating giant whirlpools."

Vaporeon (#134) has 36 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 27 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Vaporeon 12/64 in Jungle (1999). That card is named Vaporeon, while this one is Dark Vaporeon. That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this one. 35 other cards of Vaporeon list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Mitsuhiro Arita. I count 721 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Legendary Collection set binder is where a full Legendary Collection set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Vaporeon can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Eevee and the Eeveelutions, Mitsuhiro Arita cards, and Team Rocket cards. I still need this card.
