Hydreigon 62/111 · Crimson Invasion

Hydreigon is Pokédex #635, generation 5 (Unova). Hydreigon is a Stage 2 Darkness Pokémon with 160 HP. The card says it evolves from Zweilous. In this catalog that name is Zweilous (#634).

Hydreigon sits at 62/111 in Crimson Invasion, position 62 of 126. Before it is 61 Zweilous, and after it is 63 Guzzlord-GX. The set belongs to the Sun & Moon series. It was released on November 3, 2017. The printed size is 111. This checklist is longer, at 126 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

Weed Out is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may choose 3 of your Benched Pokémon. Then, discard your other Benched Pokémon. The attack Dark Destruction lists 120 damage. The cost is Darkness, Darkness, Colorless. You may discard an Energy from this Pokémon. If you do, discard an Energy from your opponent's Active Pokémon. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "The heads on their arms do not have brains. They use all three heads to consume and destroy everything."

Hydreigon (#635) has 24 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 16 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Hydreigon 79/101 in Noble Victories (2011). That card lists 150 HP, and this one lists 160 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Anesaki Dynamic illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 21 other cards of Hydreigon list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Anesaki Dynamic. I count 134 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Crimson Invasion set binder is where a full Crimson Invasion set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Hydreigon can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
