Dhelmise VMAX is a VMAX Grass Pokémon with 330 HP. In the Pokédex this is Dhelmise (#781), generation 7 (Alola). The card says it evolves from Dhelmise V. In this catalog that name is Dhelmise (#781).

The earliest other card is Dhelmise SM53/248 in SM Black Star Promos (2017). That card is named Dhelmise, while this one is Dhelmise VMAX. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 330 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo VMAX. Kouki Saitou illustrated that card, and PLANETA Mochizuki illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 15 other cards of Dhelmise list a different HP.

The attack Swinging Chain lists no damage number. The cost is Grass. This attack does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon for each Grass Energy attached to this Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Max Anchor is another attack lists 240 damage. The cost is Grass, Grass, Colorless. During your next turn, this Pokémon can't use Max Anchor. Weakness is Fire ×2. Retreat cost is 3.

I keep a set binder for Shining Fates, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Shining Fates set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Dhelmise can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). I still need this card.
