Helioptile is a Basic Lightning Pokémon with 60 HP. In the Pokédex this is Helioptile (#694), generation 6 (Kalos). The card lists Heliolisk, Heliolisk (#695) under evolves to.

HiRON illustrated this card. The same name is on 12 other cards in the catalog.

Helioptile (#694) has 14 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2014 to 2026. The earliest other card is Helioptile 36/106 in Flashfire (2014). Both list 60 HP. Both list the rarity Common. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and HiRON illustrated this one. 8 other cards of Helioptile list a different HP.

The attack Tail Rap lists 10+ damage. The cost is Lightning, Colorless. Flip 2 coins. This attack does 20 more damage for each heads. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Metal -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "They make their home in deserts. They can generate their energy from basking in the sun, so eating food is not a requirement."

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