Akira Komayama illustrated this card. The same name is on 239 other cards in the catalog.

Charmander (#004) has 45 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 35 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Charmander 46/102 in Base (1999). That card lists 50 HP, and this one lists 70 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Akira Komayama illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 29 other cards of Charmander list a different HP.

The attack Draw In lists no damage number. The cost is Fire. Attach 2 Fire Energy cards from your discard pile to this Pokémon. Flare is another attack lists 20 damage. The cost is Fire, Colorless. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "The fire on the tip of its tail is a measure of its life. If healthy, its tail burns intensely."

I keep a set binder for Boundaries Crossed, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Boundaries Crossed set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Charmander can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
