Unown [B] 66/130 · Diamond & Pearl

Diamond & Pearl is a set in the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on May 1, 2007. The printed size is 130, and the checklist is the same length. Unown [B] is 66/130, in position 66 of 130 on this checklist. Before it is 65 Unown [A], and after it is 67 Unown [C]. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Unown [B] is a Basic Psychic Pokémon with 50 HP. The card lists level 12. In the Pokédex this is Unown (#201), generation 2 (Johto).

Nakaoka illustrated this card. The same name is on 46 other cards in the catalog.

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 [B]. 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.

BOUNCE is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), if Unown B is on your Bench, you may flip a coin. If heads, discard all cards attached to any 1 of your Unown and shuffle that Pokémon back into your deck. 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."

I keep a set binder for Diamond & Pearl, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Diamond & Pearl set binder. 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.
