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

Breloom sits at 4/198 in Scarlet & Violet, position 4 of 258. Before it is 3 Shroomish, and after it is 5 Cacnea. The set belongs to the Scarlet & Violet series. It was released on March 31, 2023. The printed size is 198. This checklist is longer, at 258 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

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 Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Ryuta Fuse illustrated this one. 13 other cards of Breloom list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Ryuta Fuse. I count 98 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Scarlet & Violet set binder is where a full Scarlet & Violet set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Breloom can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
