Rapidash 22/100 · Stormfront

Stormfront is a set in the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on 1 November 2008. The printed size is 100. This checklist is longer, at 106 cards. Rapidash is 22/100, in position 22 of 106 on this checklist. Before it is 21 Mamoswine, and after it is 23 Roserade. The listed rarity is Rare.

Rapidash is a Stage 1 Fire Pokémon with 80 HP. The card lists level 43. In the Pokédex this is Rapidash (#078), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Ponyta. In this catalog that name is Ponyta (#077).

Suwama Chiaki illustrated this card. The same name is on 102 other cards in the catalog.

Rapidash (#078) has 33 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 28 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Rapidash 44/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Suwama Chiaki illustrated this one. 30 other cards of Rapidash list a different HP.

Burning Mane is listed as Poké-Body. If Rapidash is your Active Pokémon and is damaged by an opponent's attack (even if Rapidash is Knocked Out), the Attacking Pokémon is now Burned. The attack Rear Kick lists 30 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. Shooting Fire is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Fire, Fire. Discard 2 Fire Energy attached to Rapidash and choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 60 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Water +20.

I keep a set binder for Stormfront, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Stormfront set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Rapidash can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
