Vileplume is a Stage 2 Grass Pokémon with 140 HP. In the Pokédex this is Vileplume (#045), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Gloom. In this catalog that name is Gloom (#044).

Shin Nagasawa illustrated this card. The same name is on 303 other cards in the catalog.

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. Vileplume can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
