Seadra 36/196 · Lost Origin

Seadra is Pokédex #117, generation 1 (Kanto). Seadra is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 80 HP. The card says it evolves from Horsea. In this catalog that name is Horsea (#116). The card lists Kingdra, Kingdra (#230) under evolves to.

Seadra sits at 36/196 in Lost Origin, position 36 of 217. Before it is 35 Horsea, and after it is 37 Kingdra. The set belongs to the Sword & Shield series. It was released on September 9, 2022. The printed size is 196. This checklist is longer, at 217 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

The attack Swim Freely lists 10 damage. The cost is Water. Flip a coin. If heads, during your opponent's next turn, prevent all damage from and effects of attacks done to this Pokémon. Hydro Jet is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Water. This attack does 20 damage to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon for each Water Energy attached to this Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It's the males that raise the offspring. While Seadra are raising young, the spines on their backs secrete thicker and stronger poison." The regulation mark is F.

Seadra (#117) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 19 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2024. The earliest other card is Seadra 42/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and sui illustrated this one. 15 other cards of Seadra list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads sui. I count 194 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Lost Origin set binder is where a full Lost Origin set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Seadra can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
