Chandelure is a Stage 2 Team Plasma Fire Pokémon with 130 HP. In the Pokédex this is Chandelure (#609), generation 5 (Unova). The card says it evolves from Lampent. In this catalog that name is Lampent (#608).

5ban Graphics illustrated this card. The same name is on 1,629 other cards in the catalog.

Chandelure (#609) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Chandelure 60/101 in Noble Victories (2011). Both list 130 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Rare Holo. Naoyo Kimura illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. 20 other cards of Chandelure list a different HP.

Flare Navigate is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for a Fire Energy card and attach it to 1 of your Pokémon. If you do, put 1 damage counter on that Pokémon. Shuffle your deck afterward. The attack Absorb Life lists 70 damage. The cost is Fire, Fire, Colorless. Heal 30 damage from this Pokémon. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "The spirits burned up in its ominous flame lose their way and wander this world forever."

I keep a set binder for Plasma Freeze, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Plasma Freeze set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Chandelure can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
