Breloom 5/73 · Shining Legends

Shining Legends is a set in the Sun & Moon series. It was released on October 6, 2017. The printed size is 73. This checklist is longer, at 81 cards. Breloom is 5/73, in position 5 of 81 on this checklist. Before it is 4 Shroomish, and after it is 6 Carnivine. The listed rarity is Common.

Breloom is a Stage 1 Grass Pokémon with 110 HP. In the Pokédex this is Breloom (#286), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Shroomish. In this catalog that name is Shroomish (#285).

Mizue illustrated this card. The same name is on 184 other cards in the catalog.

Breloom (#286) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 14 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2025. The earliest other card is Breloom 16/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 110 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Common. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Mizue illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 13 other cards of Breloom list a different HP.

The attack Hibernation Spore lists no damage number. The cost is Grass. Your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Asleep. Your opponent flips 2 coins instead of 1 between turns. If either of them is tails, that Pokémon is still Asleep. Magnum Punch is another attack lists 80 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Fire ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "Its short arms stretch when it throws punches. Its technique is equal to that of pro boxers."

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. Breloom can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
