Lanturn is Pokédex #171, generation 2 (Johto). Lanturn is a Stage 1 Lightning Pokémon with 110 HP. The card says it evolves from Chinchou. In this catalog that name is Chinchou (#170).

Lanturn sits at 72/236 in Cosmic Eclipse, position 72 of 272. Before it is 71 Chinchou, and after it is 73 Togedemaru. The set belongs to the Sun & Moon series. It was released on November 1, 2019. The printed size is 236. This checklist is longer, at 272 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

Blinking Lights is listed as Ability. As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may look at the top card of your opponent's deck. The attack Swirling Flow lists 50 damage. The cost is Lightning, Colorless. You may have your opponent shuffle their deck. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Metal -20. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "When the bacteria living inside its antennae absorb Lanturn's bodily fluids, a strong luminescent effect is produced."

Lanturn (#171) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 21 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2024. The earliest other card is Lanturn 38/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 110 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and otumami illustrated this one. 21 other cards of Lanturn list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads otumami. I count 44 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Cosmic Eclipse set binder is where a full Cosmic Eclipse set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Lanturn can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
