Pyroar, Evolving Skies #23

Evolving Skies is a set in the Sword & Shield series. It was released on August 27, 2021. The printed size is 203. This checklist is longer, at 237 cards. Pyroar is 23/203, in position 23 of 237 on this checklist. Before it is 22 Litleo, and after it is 24 Psyduck. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Pyroar is a Stage 1 Fire Pokémon with 130 HP. In the Pokédex this is Pyroar (#668), generation 6 (Kalos). The card says it evolves from Litleo. In this catalog that name is Litleo (#667).

Hitoshi Ariga illustrated this card. The same name is on 155 other cards in the catalog.

Pyroar (#668) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 12 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2013 to 2026. The earliest other card is Pyroar XY26/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card lists 100 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Uncommon. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Hitoshi Ariga illustrated this one. 12 other cards of Pyroar list a different HP.

The attack Combustion lists 30 damage. The cost is Colorless. Rip Claw is another attack lists 70 damage. The cost is Fire, Colorless. Discard an Energy from your opponent's Active Pokémon. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "The temperature of its breath is over 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit, but Pyroar doesn't use it on its prey. This Pokémon prefers to eat raw meat." The regulation mark is E.

I keep a set binder for Evolving Skies, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Evolving Skies set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Pyroar can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). I still need this card.
