Manaphy is a Basic Water Pokémon with 60 HP. In the Pokédex this is Manaphy (#490), generation 4 (Sinnoh).

Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.

Manaphy (#490) has 16 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 14 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2007 to 2023. The earliest other card is Manaphy 9/130 in Diamond & Pearl (2007). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 60 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Nakaoka illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. 15 other cards of Manaphy list a different HP.

Blessings of the Deep is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may heal 20 damage from 1 of your Pokémon that has any Water Energy attached to it. The attack Wave Splash lists 30 damage. The cost is Water, Colorless. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It is born with a wondrous power that lets it bond with any kind of Pokémon."

I keep a set binder for Shining Legends, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Shining Legends set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Manaphy can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
