Charmeleon δ 30/100 · Crystal Guardians

Crystal Guardians is a set in the EX series. It was released on 1 August 2006. The printed size is 100, and the checklist is the same length. Charmeleon δ is 30/100, in position 30 of 100 on this checklist. Before it is 29 Charmeleon, and after it is 31 Combusken. The listed rarity is Uncommon.
Charmeleon δ is a Stage 1 Lightning Pokémon with 70 HP. In the Pokédex this is Charmeleon (#005), generation 1 (Kanto). The card says it evolves from Charmander. In this catalog that name is Charmander (#004). The card lists Charizard, Charizard (#006) under evolves to.
Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated this card. The same name is on 721 other cards in the catalog.
Charmeleon (#005) has 34 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 32 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Charmeleon 24/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Charmeleon, while this one is Charmeleon δ. That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 70 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. 26 other cards of Charmeleon list a different HP.
The attack Slash lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless. Thunder Jolt is another attack lists 50 damage. The cost is Lightning, Colorless, Colorless. Flip a coin. If tails, Charmeleon does 10 damage to itself. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 1.
I keep a set binder for Crystal Guardians, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Crystal Guardians set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Charmeleon can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards, Delta Species cards, and Kanto starters, without Charizard. I still need this card.
