Anorith 28/100 · Sandstorm
Sandstorm is a set in the EX series. It was released on 18 September 2003. The printed size is 100, and the checklist is the same length. Anorith is 28/100, in position 28 of 100 on this checklist. Before it is 27 Anorith, and after it is 29 Arbok. The listed rarity is Uncommon.
Anorith is a Stage 1 Fighting Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Anorith (#347), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Claw Fossil. The card lists Armaldo, Armaldo (#348) under evolves to.
Ken Sugimori illustrated this card. The same name is on 1,112 other cards in the catalog.
Anorith (#347) has 8 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 8 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2022. The earliest other card is Anorith 27/100 in Sandstorm (2003). Both list 80 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Ken Sugimori illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 5 other cards of Anorith list a different HP.
The attack Slash lists 20 damage. The cost is Fighting. Double Scratch is another attack lists 40× damage. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Flip 2 coins. This attack does 40 damage times the number of heads. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 2.
I keep a set binder for Sandstorm, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Sandstorm set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Anorith can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
