Typhlosion 65/165 · Expedition Base Set

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. Typhlosion is 65/165, in position 65 of 165 on this checklist. Before it is 64 Typhlosion, and after it is 66 Tyranitar. The listed rarity is Rare.

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

K. Hoshiba illustrated this card. The same name is on 6 other cards in the catalog.

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. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Shin-ichi Yoshida illustrated that card, and K. Hoshiba illustrated this one. 21 other cards of Typhlosion list a different HP.

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.

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. Typhlosion can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
