Gengar VMAX is a VMAX Single Strike Darkness Pokémon with 320 HP. In the Pokédex this is Gengar (#094), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Gengar V. In this catalog that name is Gengar (#094).

sowsow illustrated this card. The same name is on 104 other cards in the catalog.

Gengar (#094) has 52 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 35 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Gengar 5/62 in Fossil (1999). That card is named Gengar, while this one is Gengar VMAX. That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 320 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Rainbow. Keiji Kinebuchi illustrated that card, and sowsow illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 3. 51 other cards of Gengar list a different HP.

The attack Fear and Panic lists 60× damage. The cost is Darkness, Darkness. This attack does 60 damage for each of your opponent's Pokémon V and Pokémon-GX in play. G-Max Swallow Up is another attack lists 250 damage. The cost is Darkness, Darkness, Darkness. During your next turn, this Pokémon can't attack. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The card text says: VMAX rule: When your Pokémon VMAX is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 3 Prize cards. The regulation mark is E.

I keep a set binder for Fusion Strike, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Fusion Strike set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Gengar can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Gengar and the Gastly line, sowsow cards, VMAX cards, and Single Strike. I still need this card.
