Manectric is a Stage 1 Lightning Pokémon with 80 HP. In the Pokédex this is Manectric (#310), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Electrike. In this catalog that name is Electrike (#309).

I keep a set binder for Emerald, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Emerald set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Manectric can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
