Venomoth is Pokédex #049, generation 1 (Kanto). Venomoth is a Stage 1 Grass Pokémon with 90 HP. The card says it evolves from Venonat. In this catalog that name is Venonat (#048).

Venomoth (#049) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 11 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2023. The earliest other card is Venomoth 13/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. 12 other cards of Venomoth list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kagemaru Himeno. I count 656 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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