Scizor 29/100 · Majestic Dawn

Scizor is Pokédex #212, generation 2 (Johto). Scizor is a Stage 1 Metal Pokémon with 90 HP. The card lists level 42. The card says it evolves from Scyther. In this catalog that name is Scyther (#123).

Scizor sits at 29/100 in Majestic Dawn, position 29 of 100. Before it is 28 Plusle, and after it is 30 Torterra. The set belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on May 1, 2008. The printed size is 100, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Special Blow lists 30+ damage. The cost is Metal. If the Defending Pokémon has any Special Energy cards attached to it, this attack does 30 damage plus 50 more damage. X-Scissor is another attack lists 50+ damage. The cost is Metal, Colorless, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 50 damage plus 40 more damage. Weakness is Fire +30. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It has a steel-hard body. It intimidates foes by upraising its eye-patterned pincers."

Scizor (#212) has 35 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 22 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Scizor 33/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare. Hironobu Yoshida illustrated that card, and Daisuke Ito illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 1. 34 other cards of Scizor list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Daisuke Ito. I count 47 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Majestic Dawn set binder is where a full Majestic Dawn set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Scizor can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
