Skiploom is a Stage 1 Grass Pokémon with 70 HP. In the Pokédex this is Skiploom (#188), generation 2 (Johto). The card says it evolves from Hoppip. In this catalog that name is Hoppip (#187). The card lists Jumpluff, Jumpluff (#189) under evolves to.
Eri Yamaki illustrated this card. The same name is on 39 other cards in the catalog.
Skiploom (#188) has 11 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 11 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2024. The earliest other card is Skiploom 49/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 70 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and Eri Yamaki illustrated this one. 9 other cards of Skiploom list a different HP.
The attack Splash lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless. Weakness is Fire ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It spreads its petals to absorb sunlight. It also floats in the air to get closer to the sun."
I keep a set binder for Steam Siege, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Steam Siege set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Skiploom can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
