Wigglytuff, HeartGold & SoulSilver #56

HeartGold & SoulSilver is a set in the HeartGold & SoulSilver series. It was released on February 10, 2010. The printed size is 123. This checklist is longer, at 124 cards. Wigglytuff is 56/123, in position 56 of 124 on this checklist. Before it is 55 Unown, and after it is 57 Caterpie. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Wigglytuff is a Stage 1 Colorless Pokémon with 90 HP. In the Pokédex this is Wigglytuff (#040), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Jigglypuff. In this catalog that name is Jigglypuff (#039).

Atsuko Nishida illustrated this card. The same name is on 408 other cards in the catalog.

Wigglytuff (#040) has 27 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 21 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Wigglytuff 16/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Atsuko Nishida illustrated this one. 24 other cards of Wigglytuff list a different HP.

The attack Double Slap lists 40× damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. Flip 2 coins. This attack does 40 damage times the number of heads. Expand is another attack lists 50 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Wigglytuff by attacks is reduced by 10 (after applying Weakness and Resistance). Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It has a very fine fur. Take care not to make it angry, or it may inflate steadily and hit with a Body Slam."

I keep a set binder for HeartGold & SoulSilver, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the HeartGold & SoulSilver set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Wigglytuff can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Igglybuff, Jigglypuff, and Wigglytuff and Atsuko Nishida cards, early series. I still need this card.
