Manectric is a Stage 1 Lightning Pokémon with 90 HP. In the Pokédex this is Manectric (#310), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Electrike. In this catalog that name is Electrike (#309).

The earliest other card is Manectric 9/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Masakazu Fukuda illustrated this one. 29 other cards of Manectric list a different HP.

The attack Energy Assist lists no damage number. The cost is Lightning. Attach 2 basic Energy cards from your discard pile to 1 of your Benched Pokémon. Quick Attack is another attack lists 30+ damage. The cost is Lightning, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 20 more damage. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It discharges electricity from its mane. It creates a thundercloud overhead to drop lightning bolts."

I keep a set binder for Dragons Exalted, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Dragons Exalted set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Manectric can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
