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. Nosepass is 78/160, in position 78 of 164 on this checklist. Before it is 77 Rhyperior, and after it is 79 Meditite. The listed rarity is Common.

Nosepass is a Basic Fighting Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Nosepass (#299), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card lists Probopass, Probopass (#476) under evolves to.

Satoshi Shirai illustrated this card. The same name is on 50 other cards in the catalog.

Nosepass (#299) has 17 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Nosepass 18/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Common. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Satoshi Shirai illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 3. 11 other cards of Nosepass list a different HP.

The attack Stiffen lists no damage number. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to this Pokémon by attacks is reduced by 40 (after applying Weakness and Resistance). Ram is another attack lists 40 damage. The cost is Fighting, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "Its magnetic nose consistently faces north. Travelers check Nosepass to get their bearings."

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. Nosepass can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
