Banette-GX is a Stage 1 GX Psychic Pokémon with 190 HP. In the Pokédex this is Banette (#354), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Shuppet. In this catalog that name is Shuppet (#353).
5ban Graphics illustrated this card. The same name is on 1,629 other cards in the catalog.
Banette (#354) has 23 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 18 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2004 to 2026. The earliest other card is Banette 1/101 in Hidden Legends (2004). That card is named Banette, while this one is Banette-GX. That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 190 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Rainbow. Midori Harada illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. 20 other cards of Banette list a different HP.
Shady Move is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), if this Pokémon is your Active Pokémon, you may move 1 damage counter from 1 Pokémon to another Pokémon. The attack Shadow Chant lists 30+ damage. The cost is Psychic. This attack does 10 more damage for each Supporter card in your discard pile. You can't add more than 100 damage in this way. Tomb Hunt-GX is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Psychic. Put 3 cards from your discard pile into your hand. (You can't use more than 1 GX attack in a game.) Weakness is Darkness ×2. Resistance is Fighting -20. Retreat cost is 1. The card text says: Pokémon-GX rule: When your Pokémon-GX is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.
I keep a set binder for Celestial Storm, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Celestial Storm set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Banette can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
