Jumpluff 7/111 · Neo Genesis

Jumpluff is Pokédex #189, generation 2 (Johto). Jumpluff is a Stage 2 Grass Pokémon with 70 HP. The card lists level 35. The card says it evolves from Skiploom. In this catalog that name is Skiploom (#188).

Jumpluff sits at 7/111 in Neo Genesis, position 7 of 111. Before it is 6 Heracross, and after it is 8 Kingdra. 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.

The attack Sleep Powder lists 20 damage. The cost is Grass. The Defending Pokémon is now Asleep. Leech Seed is another attack lists 20 damage. The cost is Grass. If this attack damages the Defending Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance), remove 1 damage counter from Jumpluff, if it has any. Weakness is Fire ×2. Resistance is Fighting -30. The flavor text reads "Once it catches the wind, it deftly controls its cotton-puff spores to float, even around the world."

Jumpluff (#189) has 12 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 11 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2024. The earliest other card is Jumpluff 9/64 in Neo Revelation (2001). Both list 70 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Atsuko Nishida illustrated this one. 8 other cards of Jumpluff list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Atsuko Nishida. I count 408 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. Jumpluff can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
