Pupitar 75/168 · Celestial Storm
Celestial Storm is a set in the Sun & Moon series. It was released on August 3, 2018. The printed size is 168. This checklist is longer, at 187 cards. Pupitar is 75/168, in position 76 of 187 on this checklist. Before it is 74 Larvitar, and after it is 76 Meditite. The listed rarity is Uncommon.
Pupitar is a Stage 1 Fighting Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Pupitar (#247), generation 2 (Johto). The card says it evolves from Larvitar. In this catalog that name is Larvitar (#246). The card lists Tyranitar, Tyranitar (#248) under evolves to.
Hironobu Yoshida illustrated this card. The same name is on 38 other cards in the catalog.
Pupitar (#247) has 26 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 23 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2025. The earliest other card is Pupitar 45/75 in Neo Discovery (2001). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. 17 other cards of Pupitar list a different HP.
The attack Skull Bash lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. Dust Devil is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Fighting, Fighting. This attack does 20 damage to each non-Fighting Pokémon (both yours and your opponent's). (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "Its shell is as hard as sheet rock, and it is also very strong. Its thrashing can topple a mountain."
I keep a set binder for Celestial Storm, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Celestial Storm set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Pupitar can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
