Noctowl 42/111 · Neo Genesis

Noctowl, Neo Genesis #42

Neo Genesis is a set in the Neo series. It was released on December 16, 2000. The printed size is 111, and the checklist is the same length. Noctowl is 42/111, in position 42 of 111 on this checklist. Before it is 41 Miltank, and after it is 43 Phanpy. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Noctowl is a Stage 1 Colorless Pokémon with 60 HP. The card lists level 23. In the Pokédex this is Noctowl (#164), generation 2 (Johto). The card says it evolves from Hoothoot. In this catalog that name is Hoothoot (#163).

Ken Sugimori illustrated this card. The same name is on 1,112 other cards in the catalog.

Noctowl (#164) has 18 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 18 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2002 to 2025. The earliest other card is Shining Noctowl 110/105 in Neo Destiny (2002). That card is named Shining Noctowl, while this one is Noctowl. Both list 60 HP. The rarity there is Rare Shining, and here it is Uncommon. 17 other cards of Noctowl list a different HP.

Glaring Gaze is listed as Pokémon Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, look at your opponent's hand. If your opponent has any Trainer cards there, choose 1 of them. Your opponent shuffles that card into his or her deck. This power can't be used if Noctowl is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. The attack Wing Attack lists 30 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Resistance is Fighting -30. The flavor text reads "Its eyes are specially adapted. They concentrate even faint light and enable it to see in the dark."

I keep a set binder for Neo Genesis, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Neo Genesis set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Noctowl can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
