Annihilape, Pitch Black #41

Annihilape is Pokédex #979, generation 9 (Paldea). Annihilape is a Stage 2 Psychic Pokémon with 150 HP. The card says it evolves from Primeape. In this catalog that name is Primeape (#057).

Annihilape sits at 41/84 in Pitch Black, position 41 of 120. Before it is 40 Marshadow, and after it is 42 Mankey. The set belongs to the Mega Evolution series. It was released on July 17, 2026. The printed size is 84. This checklist is longer, at 120 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Durable Body is listed as Ability. If this Pokémon would be Knocked Out by damage from an attack, flip a coin. If heads, this Pokémon is not Knocked Out, and its remaining HP becomes 10. The attack Ghostly Blow lists 100 damage. The cost is Psychic, Psychic. Place 5 damage counters on 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. Weakness is Darkness ×2. Resistance is Fighting -30. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It imbues its fists with the power of the rage that it kept hidden in its heart. Opponents struck by these imbued fists will be shattered to their core." The regulation mark is J.

Annihilape (#979) has 7 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 6 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2023 to 2025. The earliest other card is Annihilape ex 32/102 in Scarlet & Violet Black Star Promos (2023). That card is named Annihilape ex, while this one is Annihilape. That card lists 320 HP, and this one lists 150 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Uncommon. PLANETA Hiiragi illustrated that card, and Haru Akasaka illustrated this one. The regulation mark there is G, and here it is J. 6 other cards of Annihilape list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Haru Akasaka. I count 16 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Pitch Black set binder is where a full Pitch Black set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Annihilape can fill a slot in Generation 9 binder (Paldea). I still need this card.
