Flareon 13/98 · Ancient Origins

Flareon is Pokédex #136, generation 1 (Kanto). Flareon is a Stage 1 Fire Pokémon with 90 HP. The card says it evolves from Eevee. In this catalog that name is Eevee (#133).

Flareon sits at 13/98 in Ancient Origins, position 13 of 101. Before it is 12 Virizion, and after it is 14 Entei. The set belongs to the XY series. It was released on August 12, 2015. The printed size is 98. This checklist is longer, at 101 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

Flare Effect is listed as Ability. Each of your Stage 1 Pokémon in play is now a Fire Pokémon in addition to its existing types. The attack Heat Breath lists 60+ damage. The cost is Fire, Colorless, Colorless. Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 20 more damage. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It has a flame bag inside its body. After inhaling deeply, it blows out flames of nearly 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit."

Flareon (#136) has 38 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 26 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Flareon 3/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and sui illustrated this one. 33 other cards of Flareon list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads sui. I count 194 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Ancient Origins set binder is where a full Ancient Origins set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Flareon can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Eevee and the Eeveelutions. I still need this card.
