Liepard 65/98 · Emerging Powers

Liepard is Pokédex #510, generation 5 (Unova). Liepard is a Stage 1 Darkness Pokémon with 80 HP. The card says it evolves from Purrloin. In this catalog that name is Purrloin (#509).

Liepard sits at 65/98 in Emerging Powers, position 65 of 98. Before it is 64 Purrloin, and after it is 66 Zorua. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on 31 August 2011. The printed size is 98, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Feint Attack lists no damage number. The cost is Darkness. Does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness, Resistance, or any other effects on that Pokémon. Claw Rend is another attack lists 50+ damage. The cost is Darkness, Colorless, Colorless. If the Defending Pokémon already has any damage counters on it, this attack does 30 more damage. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "These Pokémon vanish and appear unexpectedly. Many Trainers are drawn to their beautiful form and fur."

Liepard (#510) has 17 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 15 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2025. The earliest other card is Liepard 67/114 in Black & White (2011). Both list 80 HP. Both list the rarity Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Akira Komayama illustrated this one. 14 other cards of Liepard list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Akira Komayama. I count 239 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Emerging Powers set binder is where a full Emerging Powers set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Liepard can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
