Feraligatr 5/111 · Neo Genesis

Feraligatr is Pokédex #160, generation 2 (Johto). Feraligatr is a Stage 2 Water Pokémon with 120 HP. The card lists level 69. The card says it evolves from Croconaw. In this catalog that name is Croconaw (#159).

Feraligatr sits at 5/111 in Neo Genesis, position 5 of 111. Before it is 4 Feraligatr, and after it is 6 Heracross. The set belongs to the Neo series. It was released on December 16, 2000. The printed size is 111, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Downpour is listed as Pokémon Power. As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may discard a Water Energy card from your hand. This power can't be used if Feraligatr is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. The attack Riptide lists 10+ damage. The cost is Water, Water, Water. Does 10 damage plus 10 damage times the number of Water Energy cards in your discard pile. Then, shuffle all Water Energy cards from your discard pile into your deck. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "It is hard for it to support its own weight out of water, so it gets down on all fours. But it moves fast."

Feraligatr (#160) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 16 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2026. The earliest other card is Feraligatr 4/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 100 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. 17 other cards of Feraligatr list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Ken Sugimori. I count 1,112 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Neo Genesis set binder is where a full Neo Genesis set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Feraligatr can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Johto starters. I still need this card.
