Chandelure 60/101 · Noble Victories

Chandelure is Pokédex #609, generation 5 (Unova). Chandelure is a Stage 2 Psychic Pokémon with 130 HP. The card says it evolves from Lampent. In this catalog that name is Lampent (#608).

Chandelure sits at 60/101 in Noble Victories, position 60 of 102. Before it is 59 Lampent, and after it is 61 Gigalith. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on November 16, 2011. The printed size is 101. This checklist is longer, at 102 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

Cursed Shadow is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), if this Pokémon is your Active Pokémon, you may put 3 damage counters on your opponent's Pokémon in any way you like. The attack Eerie Glow lists 50 damage. The cost is Psychic, Psychic, Colorless. The Defending Pokémon is now Burned and Confused. Weakness is Darkness ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It absorbs a spirit, which it then burns. By waving the flames on its arms, it puts its foes into a hypnotic trance."

Chandelure (#609) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2012 to 2026. The earliest other card is Chandelure 20/99 in Next Destinies (2012). That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Naoyo Kimura illustrated this one. 20 other cards of Chandelure list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Naoyo Kimura. I count 256 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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