Slugma is a Basic Fire Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Slugma (#218), generation 2 (Johto). The card lists Magcargo, Magcargo (#219) under evolves to.
Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this card. The same name is on 721 other cards in the catalog.
Slugma (#218) has 23 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 21 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2026. The earliest other card is Slugma 53/64 in Neo Revelation (2001). That card lists 50 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this one. 16 other cards of Slugma list a different HP.
The attack Combustion lists 20 damage. The cost is Fire, Colorless. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "A common sight in volcanic areas, it slowly slithers around in a constant search for warm places."
I keep a set binder for Kalos Starter Set, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Kalos Starter Set set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Slugma can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards. I still need this card.
