Samurott 35/185 · Vivid Voltage

Vivid Voltage is a set in the Sword & Shield series. It was released on November 13, 2020. The printed size is 185. This checklist is longer, at 203 cards. Samurott is 35/185, in position 35 of 203 on this checklist. Before it is 34 Dewott, and after it is 36 Galarian Darmanitan V. The listed rarity is Rare.

Samurott is a Stage 2 Water Pokémon with 160 HP. In the Pokédex this is Samurott (#503), generation 5 (Unova). The card says it evolves from Dewott. In this catalog that name is Dewott (#502).

Shin Nagasawa illustrated this card. The same name is on 303 other cards in the catalog.

Samurott (#503) has 18 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 9 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2025. The earliest other card is Samurott BW22/101 in BW Black Star Promos (2011). That card lists 140 HP, and this one lists 160 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Shin Nagasawa illustrated this one. 16 other cards of Samurott list a different HP.

Swaddling Leaves is listed as Ability. This Pokémon takes 30 less damage from attacks (after applying Weakness and Resistance). The attack Aqua Wash lists 120 damage. The cost is Water, Colorless, Colorless. You may put 2 Energy attached to your opponent's Active Pokémon into their hand. Weakness is Lightning ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "One swing of the sword incorporated in its armor can fell an opponent. A simple glare from one of them quiets everybody." The regulation mark is D.

I keep a set binder for Vivid Voltage, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Vivid Voltage set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Samurott can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
