Omastar 23/92 · Legend Maker

Legend Maker is a set in the EX series. It was released on February 1, 2006. The printed size is 92. This checklist is longer, at 93 cards. Omastar is 23/92, in position 23 of 93 on this checklist. Before it is 22 Magneton, and after it is 24 Pinsir. The listed rarity is Rare.

Omastar is a Stage 2 Water Pokémon with 100 HP. In the Pokédex this is Omastar (#139), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Omanyte. In this catalog that name is Omanyte (#138).

Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this card. The same name is on 721 other cards in the catalog.

Omastar (#139) has 16 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 14 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2023. The earliest other card is Omastar 40/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this one. 16 other cards of Omastar list a different HP.

Ancient Fang is listed as Poké-Body. As long as you have Kabuto, Kabutops, or Kabutops ex in play, Omastar's attacks do 20 more damage to the Defending Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance). The attack Drag Off lists 10 damage. The cost is Colorless. Before doing damage, you may choose 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon and switch it with 1 of the Defending Pokémon. Your opponent chooses the Defending Pokémon to switch. Hydro Splash is another attack lists 50 damage. The cost is Water, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 1.

I keep a set binder for Legend Maker, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Legend Maker set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Omastar can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards. I still need this card.
