The flavor text reads "When it encounters a foe bigger than itself, it wants to throw it. It changes belts as it gets stronger."

Throh (#538) has 7 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 6 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2025. The earliest other card is Throh 61/114 in Black & White (2011). Both list 100 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Common. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Naoki Saito illustrated this one. 5 other cards of Throh list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Naoki Saito. I count 270 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. Throh can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
