Magnezone DP44/56 · DP Black Star Promos

Magnezone is Pokédex #462, generation 4 (Sinnoh). Magnezone is a Stage 2 Lightning Pokémon with 130 HP. The card lists level 53. The card says it evolves from Magneton. In this catalog that name is Magneton (#082).

Magnezone sits at DP44/56 in DP Black Star Promos, position 44 of 56. Before it is DP43 Probopass G, and after it is DP45 Charizard G LV.X. The set belongs to the Diamond & Pearl series. It was released on 1 May 2007. The printed size is 56, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Promo.

The attack Charge Beam lists 30 damage. The cost is Lightning. Search your discard pile for an Energy card and attach it to Magnezone. Metallic Bolt is another attack lists 60 damage. The cost is Lightning, Metal, Colorless, Colorless. You may discard a Lightning Energy and a Metal Energy attached to Magnezone. If you do, this attack's base damage is 120 instead of 60. Weakness is Fighting +30. Resistance is Metal -20. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It evolved from exposure to a special magnetic field. Three units generate magnetism."

Magnezone (#462) has 27 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 20 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2007 to 2025. The earliest other card is Magnezone 8/130 in Diamond & Pearl (2007). That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Promo. Nakaoka illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 4, and here it is 2. 26 other cards of Magnezone list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kagemaru Himeno. I count 656 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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