Paras is a Basic Grass Pokémon with 60 HP. In the Pokédex this is Paras (#046), generation 1 (Kanto). The card lists Parasect, Parasect (#047) under evolves to.

Paras (#046) has 18 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 18 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Paras 59/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 40 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Ayaka Yoshida illustrated this one. 14 other cards of Paras list a different HP.
The attack Scratch lists 30 damage. The cost is Grass, Colorless. Weakness is Fire ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "No matter how much it eats, the mushrooms growing on its back steal away most of the nutrients it consumes."
I keep a set binder for Sun & Moon, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Sun & Moon set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Paras can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
