Pangoro is a Stage 1 Darkness Pokémon with 130 HP. In the Pokédex this is Pangoro (#675), generation 6 (Kalos). The card says it evolves from Pancham. In this catalog that name is Pancham (#674).

SATOSHI NAKAI illustrated this card. The same name is on 58 other cards in the catalog.

Pangoro (#675) has 12 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 12 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2013 to 2026. The earliest other card is Pangoro XY50/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card lists 100 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and SATOSHI NAKAI illustrated this one. 10 other cards of Pangoro list a different HP.

The attack Untamed Punch lists 50+ damage. The cost is Darkness, Colorless. If this Pokémon has any damage counters on it, this attack does 50 more damage, and both Active Pokémon are now Confused. Double Stomp is another attack lists 80+ damage. The cost is Darkness, Darkness, Colorless. Flip 2 coins. This attack does 40 more damage for each heads. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "From the slight twitches of its bamboo leaf, it deduces its opponent's movements. It's eager to tussle but kindhearted toward its companions."

I keep a set binder for Forbidden Light, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Forbidden Light set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Pangoro can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). I still need this card.
