Skiploom 13/214 · Lost Thunder

Skiploom is Pokédex #188, generation 2 (Johto). Skiploom is a Stage 1 Grass Pokémon with 60 HP. The card says it evolves from Hoppip. In this catalog that name is Hoppip (#187). The card lists Jumpluff, Jumpluff (#189) under evolves to.

Skiploom sits at 13/214 in Lost Thunder, position 13 of 240. Before it is 12 Hoppip, and after it is 14 Jumpluff. The set belongs to the Sun & Moon series. It was released on November 2, 2018. The printed size is 214. This checklist is longer, at 240 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Floral Path to the Sky is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for Jumpluff, put this Pokémon and all cards attached to it in the Lost Zone, and put that Jumpluff in its place. Then, shuffle your deck. The attack Tackle lists 30 damage. The cost is Grass. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Resistance is Fighting -20. The flavor text reads "It spreads its petals to absorb sunlight. It also floats in the air to get closer to the sun."

Skiploom (#188) has 11 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 11 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2024. The earliest other card is Skiploom 49/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). Both list 60 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and Hitoshi Ariga illustrated this one. 3 other cards of Skiploom list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Hitoshi Ariga. I count 155 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Lost Thunder set binder is where a full Lost Thunder set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Skiploom can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
