Quagsire 22/116 · Plasma Freeze

Quagsire is Pokédex #195, generation 2 (Johto). Quagsire is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 100 HP. The card says it evolves from Wooper. In this catalog that name is Wooper (#194).

Quagsire sits at 22/116 in Plasma Freeze, position 22 of 122. Before it is 21 Wooper, and after it is 23 Glaceon. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on May 8, 2013. The printed size is 116. This checklist is longer, at 122 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

Laid-Back is listed as Ability. Any damage done to this Pokémon by attacks is reduced by 20 (after applying Weakness and Resistance). The attack Mud Gun lists 60+ damage. The cost is Water, Colorless, Colorless. If this Pokémon has any Fighting Energy attached to it, this attack does 30 more damage. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "It has an easygoing nature. It doesn't care if it bumps its head on boats and boulders while swimming."

Quagsire (#195) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 15 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2023. The earliest other card is Quagsire 45/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 14 other cards of Quagsire list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Atsuko Nishida. I count 408 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Plasma Freeze set binder is where a full Plasma Freeze set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Quagsire can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
