Ferrothorn is a Stage 1 Metal Pokémon with 140 HP. In the Pokédex this is Ferrothorn (#598), generation 5 (Unova). The card says it evolves from Ferroseed. In this catalog that name is Ferroseed (#597).

Minahamu illustrated this card. The same name is on 3 other cards in the catalog.

Ferrothorn (#598) has 12 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 10 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Ferrothorn 72/98 in Emerging Powers (2011). That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 140 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Illustration Rare. Shin Nagasawa illustrated that card, and Minahamu illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 9 other cards of Ferrothorn list a different HP.

The attack Power Whip lists no damage number. The cost is Metal. This attack does 20 damage to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon for each Energy attached to this Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Metal Claw is another attack lists 130 damage. The cost is Metal, Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Fire ×2. Resistance is Grass -30. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "It fights by swinging around its three spiky feelers. A hit from these steel spikes can reduce a boulder to rubble." The regulation mark is I.

I keep a set binder for White Flare, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the White Flare set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Ferrothorn can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
