Aegislash 100/160 · Primal Clash

Primal Clash is a set in the XY series. It was released on February 4, 2015. The printed size is 160. This checklist is longer, at 164 cards. Aegislash is 100/160, in position 100 of 164 on this checklist. Before it is 99 Doublade, and after it is 101 Mr. Mime. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

Aegislash is a Stage 2 Metal Pokémon with 140 HP. In the Pokédex this is Aegislash (#681), generation 6 (Kalos). The card says it evolves from Doublade. In this catalog that name is Doublade (#680).

Kouki Saitou illustrated this card. The same name is on 652 other cards in the catalog.

Aegislash (#681) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 12 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2014 to 2026. The earliest other card is Aegislash 85/146 in XY (2014). Both list 140 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Rare Holo. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. 16 other cards of Aegislash list a different HP.

Miracle Guard is listed as Ability. Each of your Pokémon has no Weakness. The attack Protect Charge lists 80 damage. The cost is Metal, Colorless, Colorless. During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to this Pokémon by attacks is reduced by 20 (after applying Weakness and Resistance). Weakness is Fire ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "Apparently, it can detect the innate qualities of leadership. According to legend, whoever it recognizes is destined to become king."

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