Floatzel 16/95 · HS—Unleashed

Floatzel is Pokédex #419, generation 4 (Sinnoh). Floatzel is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 80 HP. The card says it evolves from Buizel. In this catalog that name is Buizel (#418).

Floatzel sits at 16/95 in HS—Unleashed, position 16 of 96. Before it is 15 Fearow, and after it is 17 Kingdra. The set belongs to the HeartGold & SoulSilver series. It was released on 12 May 2010. The printed size is 95. This checklist is longer, at 96 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

Water Acceleration is listed as Poké-Power. Once during your turn (before your attack), you may attach a Water Energy card from your hand to Floatzel. This power can't be used if Floatzel is affected by a Special Condition. The attack Waterfall lists 60 damage. The cost is Water, Water, Colorless. Weakness is Lightning ×2. The flavor text reads "With its flotation sac inflated, it can carry people on its back. It deflates the sac before it dives."

Floatzel (#419) has 14 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2007 to 2025. The earliest other card is Floatzel 26/130 in Diamond & Pearl (2007). That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. Both list the rarity Rare. Masahiko Ishii illustrated that card, and Masakazu Fukuda illustrated this one. 12 other cards of Floatzel list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Masakazu Fukuda. I count 471 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

HS—Unleashed set binder is where a full HS—Unleashed set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Floatzel can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
