Aquapolis is a set in the E-Card series. It was released on January 15, 2003. The printed size is 147. This checklist is longer, at 182 cards. Slowbro is 33/147, in position 33 of 182 on this checklist. Before it is 32 Scizor, and after it is 34 Slowking. The listed rarity is Rare.

Slowbro is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Slowbro (#080), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Slowpoke. In this catalog that name is Slowpoke (#079).

Aya Kusube illustrated this card. The same name is on 127 other cards in the catalog.

Slowbro (#080) has 26 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 22 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Slowbro 43/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Aya Kusube illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 23 other cards of Slowbro list a different HP.

Dense Body is listed as Poké-Body. Any damage done to Slowbro by attacks from Basic Pokémon (excluding Baby Pokémon) is reduced by 20. The attack Energy Cannon lists 30+ damage. The cost is Water, Colorless. This attack does 30 damage plus 10 damage for each Energy attached to Slowbro but not used to pay for this attack's Energy cost. You can't add more than 20 damage in this way. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 2.

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