The attack Flare Starter lists no damage number. The cost is Fire. Search your deck for a Fire Energy card and attach it to 1 of your Pokémon. If you go second and it's your first turn, instead search for up to 3 Fire Energy cards and attach them to your Pokémon in any way you like. Then, shuffle your deck. High-Heat Blast is another attack lists 50+ damage. The cost is Fire, Fire. If you have at least 4 Fire Energy in play, this attack does 60 more damage. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It lets out billows of steam and disappears into the dense fog. It's said to live in mountains where humans do not tread."

Volcanion (#721) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 12 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2013 to 2026. The earliest other card is Volcanion XY145/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card lists 130 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Satoshi Shirai illustrated this one. 20 other cards of Volcanion list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Satoshi Shirai. I count 50 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Unbroken Bonds set binder is where a full Unbroken Bonds set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Volcanion can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). I still need this card.
