Weezing is Pokédex #110, generation 1 (Kanto). Weezing is a Stage 1 Psychic Pokémon with 80 HP. The card lists level 42. The card says it evolves from Koffing. In this catalog that name is Koffing (#109).

Weezing sits at 31/106 in Great Encounters, position 31 of 106. Before it is 30 Wailord, and after it is 32 Wigglytuff. 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.

Toxic Virus is listed as Poké-Body. At any time between turns, each player puts 1 more damage counter on his or her Poisoned Pokémon. The attack Offensive Gas lists 30 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Confused and Poisoned. Weakness is Psychic +20. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It grows by feeding on gases released by garbage. Though very rare, triplets have been found."

Weezing (#110) has 28 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 24 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Weezing 45/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 23 other cards of Weezing list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kouki Saitou. I count 652 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. Weezing can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
