Manectric 52/185 · Vivid Voltage

Manectric is Pokédex #310, generation 3 (Hoenn). Manectric is a Stage 1 Lightning Pokémon with 120 HP. The card says it evolves from Electrike. In this catalog that name is Electrike (#309).

Manectric sits at 52/185 in Vivid Voltage, position 52 of 203. Before it is 51 Electrike, and after it is 53 Blitzle. The set belongs to the Sword & Shield series. It was released on November 13, 2020. The printed size is 185. This checklist is longer, at 203 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

High Speed is listed as Ability. When you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon during your turn, you may draw 3 cards. The attack Electric Ball lists 100 damage. The cost is Lightning, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Fighting ×2. The flavor text reads "It stimulates its own muscles with electricity, so it can move quickly. It eases its soreness with electricity, too, so it can recover quickly as well." The regulation mark is D.

Manectric (#310) has 34 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 22 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Manectric 9/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and SATOSHI NAKAI illustrated this one. 30 other cards of Manectric list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads SATOSHI NAKAI. I count 58 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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