Emboar 27/113 · Legendary Treasures

Emboar is Pokédex #500, generation 5 (Unova). Emboar is a Stage 2 Fire Pokémon with 150 HP. The card says it evolves from Pignite. In this catalog that name is Pignite (#499).

Emboar sits at 27/113 in Legendary Treasures, position 27 of 140. Before it is 26 Pignite, and after it is 28 Reshiram. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on November 6, 2013. The printed size is 113. This checklist is longer, at 140 cards. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Inferno Fandango is listed as Ability. As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may attach a Fire Energy card from your hand to 1 of your Pokémon. The attack Heat Crash lists 80 damage. The cost is Fire, Fire, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 4. The flavor text reads "It can throw a fire punch by setting its fists on fire with its fiery chin. It cares deeply about its friends."

Emboar (#500) has 12 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 9 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Emboar BW21/101 in BW Black Star Promos (2011). Both list 150 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Kanako Eo illustrated this one. 7 other cards of Emboar list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kanako Eo. I count 99 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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