Golduck 29/149 · Sun & Moon

Golduck is Pokédex #055, generation 1 (Kanto). Golduck is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 90 HP. The card says it evolves from Psyduck. In this catalog that name is Psyduck (#054).

Golduck sits at 29/149 in Sun & Moon, position 29 of 173. Before it is 28 Psyduck, and after it is 30 Poliwag. The set belongs to the Sun & Moon series. It was released on February 3, 2017. The printed size is 149. This checklist is longer, at 173 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Scratch lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless. Double Jet is another attack lists 60× damage. The cost is Water. Discard up to 2 Water Energy cards from your hand. This attack does 60 damage for each card you discarded in this way. Weakness is Grass ×2. The flavor text reads "It is said that the red part of its forehead grants supernatural powers to those who posses one, so it was over-hunted in the past."

Golduck (#055) has 23 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 20 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Golduck 35/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Hasuno illustrated this one. 19 other cards of Golduck list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Hasuno. I count 74 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Sun & Moon set binder is where a full Sun & Moon set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Golduck can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
