Ninjask is a Stage 1 Grass Pokémon with 80 HP. The card lists level 38. In the Pokédex this is Ninjask (#291), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Nincada. In this catalog that name is Nincada (#290). The card lists Shedinja, Shedinja (#292) under evolves to.

Kouki Saitou illustrated this card. The same name is on 652 other cards in the catalog.

Ninjask (#291) has 10 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 8 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2025. The earliest other card is Ninjask 18/97 in Dragon (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Uncommon. Hajime Kusajima illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. 6 other cards of Ninjask list a different HP.

The attack Circling Dive lists no damage number. The cost is Colorless. This attack does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Switch Ninjask with 1 of your Benched Pokémon. Parallel Drain is another attack lists 30 damage. The cost is Grass. Remove from 1 of your Pokémon the number of damage counters equal to the damage you did to the Defending Pokémon. Weakness is Fire +20. Resistance is Fighting -20. The flavor text reads "Because it moves so quickly, it sometimes becomes unseeable. It congregates around tree sap."

I keep a set binder for Supreme Victors, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Supreme Victors set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Ninjask can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
