Gengar 94/27 · 30th Celebration: Classic Collection

Gengar is Pokédex #094, generation 1 (Kanto). Gengar is a Stage 2 Psychic Pokémon with 130 HP. The card says it evolves from Haunter. In this catalog that name is Haunter (#093).

Gengar sits at 94/27 in 30th Celebration: Classic Collection, position 17 of 27. Before it is 89 Solgaleo-GX, and after it is 99 Darkrai & Cresselia LEGEND. The set belongs to the Mega Evolution series. It was released on September 16, 2026. This checklist has 27 cards. The listed rarity is Rare Prime.

Catastrophe is listed as Poké-BODY. As long as Gengar is your Active Pokémon, if any of your opponent's Pokémon would be Knocked Out, put that Pokémon in the Lost Zone instead of discarding. (Discard all cards attached to that Pokémon.) The attack Hurl into Darkness lists no damage number. The cost is Psychic. Look at your opponent's hand and choose a number of Pokémon you find there up to the number of Psychic Energy attached to Gengar. Put the Pokémon you chose in the Lost Zone. Cursed Drop is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Psychic, Colorless. Put 4 damage counters on your opponent's Pokémon in any way you like. Weakness is Darkness ×2. Resistance is Colorless -20.

Gengar (#094) has 52 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 34 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Gengar 5/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Prime. Keiji Kinebuchi illustrated that card, and Takashi Yamaguchi illustrated this one. 43 other cards of Gengar list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Takashi Yamaguchi. I count 18 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

30th Celebration: Classic Collection set binder is where a full 30th Celebration: Classic Collection set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Gengar can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Gengar and the Gastly line. I still need this card.
