Tangrowth is Pokédex #465, generation 4 (Sinnoh). Tangrowth is a Stage 1 Grass Pokémon with 110 HP. The card says it evolves from Tangela. In this catalog that name is Tangela (#114).

The attack Grind lists 20× damage. The cost is Colorless. Does 20 damage times the number of Energy attached to Tangrowth. Plow Over is another attack lists 30 damage. The cost is Grass, Colorless, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed. If tails, put 1 Energy card attached to the Defending Pokémon in the Lost Zone.

Tangrowth (#465) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 14 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2008 to 2025. The earliest other card is Tangrowth 10/106 in Great Encounters (2008). Both list 110 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Kent Kanetsuna illustrated that card, and Hideaki Hakozaki illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 4. 12 other cards of Tangrowth list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Hideaki Hakozaki. I count 35 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Call of Legends set binder is where a full Call of Legends set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Tangrowth can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
