Unown [A] 65/130 · Diamond & Pearl

Unown is Pokédex #201, generation 2 (Johto). Unown [A] is a Basic Psychic Pokémon with 50 HP. The card lists level 15.

Unown [A] sits at 65/130 in Diamond & Pearl, position 65 of 130. Before it is 64 Staravia, and after it is 66 Unown [B]. The set belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on May 1, 2007. The printed size is 130, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

ANALYZE is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), if Unown A is on your Bench, you may look at the top 2 cards of your deck and put them back on top of your deck in any order. The attack Hidden Power lists 10 damage. The cost is Colorless. Weakness is Psychic +10. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "Shaped like ancient writing, it is a huge mystery whether language or UNOWN came first."

Unown (#201) has 95 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 18 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Unown [J] 38/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card is named Unown [J], while this one is Unown [A]. That card lists 40 HP, and this one lists 50 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Uncommon. Hideki Kazama illustrated that card, and Nakaoka illustrated this one. 67 other cards of Unown list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Nakaoka. I count 46 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Diamond & Pearl set binder is where a full Diamond & Pearl set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Unown can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Unown. I still need this card.
