Rapidash 52/113 · Delta Species

Rapidash is Pokédex #078, generation 1 (Kanto). Rapidash is a Stage 1 Fire Pokémon with 70 HP. The card says it evolves from Ponyta. In this catalog that name is Ponyta (#077).

Rapidash sits at 52/113 in Delta Species, position 52 of 114. Before it is 51 Pupitar δ, and after it is 53 Shelgon δ. The set belongs to the EX series. It was released on October 31, 2005. The printed size is 113. This checklist is longer, at 114 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

The attack Super Singe lists no damage number. The cost is Fire. The Defending Pokémon is now Burned. Stomp is another attack lists 30+ damage. The cost is Fire, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 30 damage plus 10 more damage. Weakness is Water ×2.

Rapidash (#078) has 33 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 28 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Rapidash 44/64 in Jungle (1999). Both list 70 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Atsuko Nishida illustrated this one. 26 other cards of Rapidash list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Atsuko Nishida. I count 408 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Delta Species set binder is where a full Delta Species set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Rapidash can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
