Expedition Base Set is a set in the E-Card series. It was released on September 15, 2002. The printed size is 165, and the checklist is the same length. Alakazam is 1/165, in position 1 of 165 on this checklist. The next card is 2 Ampharos. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.
Alakazam is a Stage 2 Psychic Pokémon with 100 HP. In the Pokédex this is Alakazam (#065), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Kadabra. In this catalog that name is Kadabra (#064).
Hajime Kusajima illustrated this card. The same name is on 206 other cards in the catalog.
Alakazam (#065) has 28 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 19 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Alakazam 1/102 in Base (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Hajime Kusajima illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 23 other cards of Alakazam list a different HP.
Psymimic is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn, instead of Alakazam's normal attack, you may choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon's attacks. Alakazam copies that attack including its Energy costs and anything else required in order to use that attack, such as discarding Energy cards. (No matter what type that Pokémon is, Alakazam's type is still Psychic.) This power can't be used if Alakazam is affected by a Special Condition. The attack Syncroblast lists 80 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless, Colorless. If Alakazam and the Defending Pokémon don't have the same number of Energy cards attached to them, this attack's base damage is 20 instead of 80. Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 2.
I keep a set binder for Expedition Base Set, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Expedition Base Set set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Alakazam can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Card number 1. I still need this card.
