Groudon 84/160 · Primal Clash

Groudon, Primal Clash #84

Groudon is Pokédex #383, generation 3 (Hoenn). Groudon is a Basic Fighting Pokémon with 130 HP.

Groudon sits at 84/160 in Primal Clash, position 84 of 164. Before it is 83 Solrock, and after it is 85 Groudon-EX. The set belongs to the XY series. It was released on February 4, 2015. The printed size is 160. This checklist is longer, at 164 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Rock Smash lists 20+ damage. The cost is Fighting, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 20 more damage. Break Ground is another attack lists 100 damage. The cost is Fighting, Fighting, Fighting, Colorless. This attack does 10 damage to each of your Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 4. The flavor text reads "This legendary Pokémon is said to represent the land. It went to sleep after dueling Kyogre."

Groudon (#383) has 33 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 22 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Groudon ex 2/40 in Nintendo Black Star Promos (2003). That card is named Groudon ex, while this one is Groudon. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare. Kazuo Yazawa illustrated that card, and Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 4. 26 other cards of Groudon list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Mitsuhiro Arita. I count 721 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Primal Clash set binder is where a full Primal Clash set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Groudon can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards and Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza. I still need this card.
