Blissey 82/108 · Dark Explorers

Blissey is Pokédex #242, generation 2 (Johto). Blissey is a Stage 1 Colorless Pokémon with 130 HP. The card says it evolves from Chansey. In this catalog that name is Chansey (#113).

Blissey sits at 82/108 in Dark Explorers, position 82 of 111. Before it is 81 Chansey, and after it is 83 Eevee. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on May 9, 2012. The printed size is 108. This checklist is longer, at 111 cards. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Softboiled is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, heal 30 damage from your Active Pokémon. The attack Double-Edge lists 90 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. This Pokémon does 60 damage to itself. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "The eggs it lays are filled with happiness. Eating even one bite will bring a smile to anyone."

Blissey (#242) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 16 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2024. The earliest other card is Blissey 2/64 in Neo Revelation (2001). That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Yuka Morii illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 16 other cards of Blissey list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kouki Saitou. I count 652 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Dark Explorers set binder is where a full Dark Explorers set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Blissey can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
