Bronzong 76/99 · Next Destinies

Bronzong is Pokédex #437, generation 4 (Sinnoh). Bronzong is a Stage 1 Metal Pokémon with 110 HP. The card says it evolves from Bronzor. In this catalog that name is Bronzor (#436).

Bronzong sits at 76/99 in Next Destinies, position 76 of 103. Before it is 75 Bronzor, and after it is 77 Ferroseed. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on 8 February 2012. The printed size is 99. This checklist is longer, at 103 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

Heal Block is listed as Ability. Damage can't be healed from any Pokémon (both yours and your opponent's). (Damage counters can still be moved.) The attack Oracle Inflict lists 30+ damage. The cost is Metal, Colorless, Colorless. Does 10 more damage for each card in your opponent's hand. Weakness is Fire ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 4. The flavor text reads "It brought rains by opening portals to another world. It was revered as a bringer of plentiful harvests."

Bronzong (#437) has 28 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 26 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2007 to 2026. The earliest other card is Bronzong 6/123 in Mysterious Treasures (2007). That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 110 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Daisuke Ito illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 4. 21 other cards of Bronzong list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kouki Saitou. I count 652 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Next Destinies set binder is where a full Next Destinies set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Bronzong can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
