Chimchar (#390) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2007 to 2024. The earliest other card is Chimchar 76/130 in Diamond & Pearl (2007). Both list 50 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and sui illustrated this one. 7 other cards of Chimchar list a different HP.

The attack Flare lists 20 damage. The cost is Fire. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It is very agile. Before going to sleep, it extinguishes the flame on its tail to prevent fires."

I keep a set binder for Plasma Storm, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Plasma Storm set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Chimchar can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
