Mawile 24/106 · Great Encounters

Mawile is Pokédex #303, generation 3 (Hoenn). Mawile is a Basic Metal Pokémon with 70 HP. The card lists level 32.

Mawile sits at 24/106 in Great Encounters, position 24 of 106. Before it is 23 Latios, and after it is 25 Milotic. The set belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on February 1, 2008. The printed size is 106, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Pick Out lists no damage number. Choose 1 face-down Prize card (yours or your opponent's) and put it face up. If that card is a Supporter card, use the effect of that card as the effect of this attack. (That card remains face up for the rest of the game.) Jaw Bite is another attack lists 20 damage. The cost is Metal, Colorless. During your next turn, if an attack does damage to the Defending Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance), that attack does 20 more damage. Weakness is Fire +10. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "Attached to its head is a huge set of jaws formed by horns. It can chew through iron beams."

Mawile (#303) has 35 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 26 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Mawile 9/100 in Sandstorm (2003). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 70 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Midori Harada illustrated this one. 31 other cards of Mawile list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Midori Harada. I count 352 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Great Encounters set binder is where a full Great Encounters set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Mawile can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
