Expedition Base Set

Typhlosion 28/165 · Expedition Base Set

Typhlosion, Expedition Base Set #28

Typhlosion is Pokédex #157, generation 2 (Johto). Typhlosion is a Stage 2 Fire Pokémon with 100 HP. The card says it evolves from Quilava. In this catalog that name is Quilava (#156).

Typhlosion sits at 28/165 in Expedition Base Set, position 28 of 165. Before it is 27 Skarmory, and after it is 29 Tyranitar. The set belongs to the E-Card series. It was released on September 15, 2002. The printed size is 165, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Heat Up is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may count the total number of Energy cards attached to all of your Pokémon and all of your opponent's Pokémon. If your opponent has more total Energy cards attached, you may search your deck for 1 Fire Energy card and attach it to 1 of your Benched Pokémon, if any. Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Typhlosion is affected by a Special Condition. The attack Super Singe lists 50 damage. The cost is Fire, Fire, Colorless, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Burned. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 2.

Typhlosion (#157) has 26 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2025. The earliest other card is Typhlosion 17/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). Both list 100 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Shin-ichi Yoshida illustrated that card, and K. Hoshiba illustrated this one. 21 other cards of Typhlosion list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads K. Hoshiba. I count 6 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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