Noble Victories is a set in the Black & White series. It was released on 16 November 2011. The printed size is 101. This checklist is longer, at 102 cards. Archeops is 67/101, in position 67 of 102 on this checklist. Before it is 66 Archen, and after it is 68 Stunfisk. The listed rarity is Rare.

Archeops is a Stage 1 Fighting Pokémon with 130 HP. In the Pokédex this is Archeops (#567), generation 5 (Unova). The card says it evolves from Archen. In this catalog that name is Archen (#566).

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

Archeops (#567) has 7 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 6 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2012 to 2025. The earliest other card is Archeops 110/108 in Dark Explorers (2012). Both list 130 HP. The rarity there is Rare Secret, and here it is Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. 5 other cards of Archeops list a different HP.

Ancient Power is listed as Ability. Each play can't play any Pokémon from his or her hand to evolve his or her Pokémon. The attack Rock Slide lists 60 damage. The cost is Fighting, Fighting, Colorless. Does 10 damage to 2 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "They are intelligent and will cooperate to catch prey. From the ground, they use a running start to take flight."

I keep a set binder for Noble Victories, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Noble Victories set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Archeops can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
