Altaria RC24/83 · Generations
Generations is a set in the XY series. It was released on February 22, 2016. The printed size is 83. This checklist is longer, at 117 cards. Altaria is RC24/83, in position 109 of 117 on this checklist. Before it is RC23 Swablu, and after it is RC25 Fletchling. The listed rarity is Uncommon.
Altaria is a Stage 1 Colorless Pokémon with 90 HP. In the Pokédex this is Altaria (#334), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Swablu. In this catalog that name is Swablu (#333).
Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.
Altaria (#334) has 38 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 27 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2024. The earliest other card is Altaria 2/97 in Dragon (2003). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. 31 other cards of Altaria list a different HP.
The attack Flap lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless. Fairy Friend is another attack lists 30+ damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. If you have any Fairy Pokémon on your Bench, this attack does 30 more damage. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Resistance is Fighting -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "This fluffiness makes everyone go crazy. Is it really that charming?"
I keep a set binder for Generations, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Generations set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Altaria can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
