Golisopod is Pokédex #768, generation 7 (Alola). Golisopod is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 140 HP. The card says it evolves from Wimpod. In this catalog that name is Wimpod (#767).

Golisopod (#768) has 14 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 8 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2017 to 2026. The earliest other card is Golisopod SM52/248 in SM Black Star Promos (2017). That card lists 130 HP, and this one lists 140 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. Naoki Saito illustrated that card, and Masakazu Fukuda illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 4. 12 other cards of Golisopod list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Masakazu Fukuda. I count 471 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Unified Minds set binder is where a full Unified Minds set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Golisopod can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). I still need this card.
