Ambipom is Pokédex #424, generation 4 (Sinnoh). Ambipom is a Stage 1 Colorless Pokémon with 100 HP. The card says it evolves from Aipom. In this catalog that name is Aipom (#190).

This attack does 20 damage for each card in your hand. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It uses its tails for everything. If it wraps both of its tails around you and gives you a squeeze, that's proof it really likes you." The regulation mark is G.

Ambipom (#424) has 12 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 11 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2007 to 2025. The earliest other card is Ambipom 3/123 in Mysterious Treasures (2007). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Kouki Saitou illustrated that card, and Hitoshi Ariga illustrated this one. 11 other cards of Ambipom list a different HP.

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

Paradox Rift set binder is where a full Paradox Rift set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Ambipom can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
