Electrode 31/73 · Shining Legends

Electrode is Pokédex #101, generation 1 (Kanto). Electrode is a Stage 1 Lightning Pokémon with 90 HP. The card says it evolves from Voltorb. In this catalog that name is Voltorb (#100).

Electrode sits at 31/73 in Shining Legends, position 32 of 81. Before it is 30 Voltorb, and after it is 32 Raikou. The set belongs to the Sun & Moon series. It was released on October 6, 2017. The printed size is 73. This checklist is longer, at 81 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

The attack Swift lists 60 damage. The cost is Lightning. This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness, Resistance, or any other effects on your opponent's Active Pokémon. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Metal -20. The flavor text reads "It explodes in response to even minor stimuli. It is feared, with the nickname of "The Bomb Ball.""

Electrode (#101) has 45 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 39 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Electrode 21/102 in Base (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Uncommon. Keiji Kinebuchi illustrated that card, and Kyoko Umemoto illustrated this one. 27 other cards of Electrode list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kyoko Umemoto. I count 174 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Shining Legends set binder is where a full Shining Legends set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Electrode can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
