Bellossom is Pokédex #182, generation 2 (Johto). Bellossom is a Stage 2 Grass Pokémon with 100 HP. The card lists level 38. The card says it evolves from Gloom. In this catalog that name is Gloom (#044).

Bellossom sits at 20/146 in Legends Awakened, position 20 of 146. Before it is 19 Azelf, and after it is 21 Cradily. The set belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on August 1, 2008. The printed size is 146, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Parallel Gain lists 30 damage. The cost is Grass. Remove 1 damage counter from each of your Pokémon. Blend Pollen is another attack lists 40+ damage. The cost is Grass, Colorless. Does 40 damage plus 20 more damage for each Vileplume and each Bellossom you have in play. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Burned. Weakness is Fire +30. Resistance is Water -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "When the heavy rainfall season ends, it is drawn out by warm sunlight to dance in the open."

Bellossom (#182) has 11 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 10 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2023. The earliest other card is Bellossom 3/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 1. 9 other cards of Bellossom list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Atsuko Nishida. I count 408 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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