Golurk 46/101 · Plasma Blast

Golurk is Pokédex #623, generation 5 (Unova). Golurk is a Stage 1 Psychic Pokémon with 130 HP. The card says it evolves from Golett. In this catalog that name is Golett (#622).

Golurk sits at 46/101 in Plasma Blast, position 46 of 105. Before it is 45 Golett, and after it is 47 Machop. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on August 14, 2013. The printed size is 101. This checklist is longer, at 105 cards. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

The attack Iron Fist of Justice lists 60 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. If you have any Team Plasma Pokémon in play, this attack does nothing. Shadow Punch is another attack lists 80 damage. The cost is Psychic, Psychic, Colorless, Colorless. This attack's damage isn't affected by Resistance. Weakness is Darkness ×2. Retreat cost is 4. The flavor text reads "Golurk were created to protect people and Pokémon. They run on a mysterious energy."

Golurk (#623) has 17 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2025. The earliest other card is Golurk 72/101 in Noble Victories (2011). Both list 130 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Rare Holo. Kouki Saitou illustrated that card, and Akira Komayama illustrated this one. 11 other cards of Golurk list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Akira Komayama. I count 239 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Plasma Blast set binder is where a full Plasma Blast set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Golurk can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
