Jirachi 9/107 · Deoxys

Jirachi is Pokédex #385, generation 3 (Hoenn). Jirachi is a Basic Metal Pokémon with 60 HP.

Jirachi sits at 9/107 in Deoxys, position 9 of 108. Before it is 8 Gyarados, and after it is 10 Ludicolo. The set belongs to the EX series. It was released on February 1, 2005. The printed size is 107. This checklist is longer, at 108 cards. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Wishing Star is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), if Jirachi is your Active Pokémon, you may look at the top 5 cards of your deck, choose 1 of them, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward. Jirachi and your other Active Pokémon, if any, are now Asleep. This power can't be used if Jirachi is affected by a Special Condition. The attack Metallic Blow lists 20+ damage. The cost is Metal, Colorless. If the Defending Pokémon has any Poké-Bodies, this attack does 20 damage plus 30 more damage. Weakness is Fire ×2. Resistance is Grass -30. Retreat cost is 1.

Jirachi (#385) has 29 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 23 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Jirachi 21/40 in Nintendo Black Star Promos (2003). That card lists 50 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and Sumiyoshi Kizuki illustrated this one. 24 other cards of Jirachi list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Sumiyoshi Kizuki. I count 212 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Deoxys set binder is where a full Deoxys set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Jirachi can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
