Vileplume 45/146 · Legends Awakened

Vileplume, Legends Awakened #45

Legends Awakened is a set in the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on August 1, 2008. The printed size is 146, and the checklist is the same length. Vileplume is 45/146, in position 45 of 146 on this checklist. Before it is 44 Victreebel, and after it is 46 Anorith. The listed rarity is Rare.

Vileplume is a Stage 2 Grass Pokémon with 120 HP. The card lists level 41. In the Pokédex this is Vileplume (#045), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Gloom. In this catalog that name is Gloom (#044).

Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.

Vileplume (#045) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 19 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Vileplume 15/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Keiji Kinebuchi illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. 24 other cards of Vileplume list a different HP.

Energy Reaction is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), when you attach a Grass or Psychic Energy card from your hand to Vileplume (excluding effects of attacks or Poké-Powers), you may use this power. If you attach a Grass Energy card, the Defending Pokémon is now Asleep. If you attach a Psychic Energy card, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. This power can't be used if Vileplume is affected by a Special Condition. The attack Disturbing Pollen lists 60 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, your opponent can't play any Trainer, Supporter, or Stadium cards from his or her hand during your opponent's next turn. Weakness is Psychic +30. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "Its petals are the largest in the world. As it walks, it scatters extremely allergenic pollen."

I keep a set binder for Legends Awakened, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Legends Awakened set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Vileplume can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
