Vaporeon 20/116 · Plasma Freeze

Vaporeon is Pokédex #134, generation 1 (Kanto). Vaporeon is a Stage 1 Team Plasma Water Pokémon with 110 HP. The card says it evolves from Eevee. In this catalog that name is Eevee (#133).

Vaporeon sits at 20/116 in Plasma Freeze, position 20 of 122. Before it is 19 Seadra, and after it is 21 Wooper. The set belongs to the Black & White series. It was released on 8 May 2013. The printed size is 116. This checklist is longer, at 122 cards. The listed rarity is Uncommon.

The attack Refreshing Rain lists no damage number. The cost is Colorless. Heal 30 damage from each of your Pokémon. Gold Breaker is another attack lists 30+ damage. The cost is Water, Colorless. If the Defending Pokémon is a Pokémon-EX, this attack does 50 more damage. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "Its cell composition is similar to water molecules. As a result, it can't be seen when it melts away into water."

Vaporeon (#134) has 36 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 27 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Vaporeon 12/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 110 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 30 other cards of Vaporeon list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads 5ban Graphics. I count 1,629 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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