Wobbuffet is a Basic Psychic Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Wobbuffet (#202), generation 2 (Johto).

The earliest other card is Wobbuffet 16/75 in Neo Discovery (2001). That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Hironobu Yoshida illustrated that card, and Atsuko Nishida illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 18 other cards of Wobbuffet list a different HP.

Safeguard is listed as Poké-Body. Prevent all effects of attacks, including damage, done to Wobbuffet by your opponent's Pokémon-ex. The attack Flip Over lists 50 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless, Colorless. Wobbuffet does 10 damage to itself, and don't apply Weakness and Resistance to this damage. Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 2.

I keep a set binder for Sandstorm, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Sandstorm set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Wobbuffet can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
