Galarian Obstagoon is a Stage 2 Darkness Pokémon with 160 HP. In the Pokédex this is Obstagoon (#862), generation 8 (Galar). The card says it evolves from Galarian Linoone. In this catalog that name is Linoone (#264).

GOSSAN illustrated this card. The same name is on 57 other cards in the catalog.

Obstagoon (#862) has 9 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 7 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2019 to 2026. The earliest other card is Galarian Obstagoon SWSH059/307 in SWSH Black Star Promos (2019). Both list 160 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Trainer Gallery Rare Holo. Hasuno illustrated that card, and GOSSAN illustrated this one. 5 other cards of Obstagoon list a different HP.

Untamed Shout is listed as Ability. When you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon during your turn, you may put 3 damage counters on 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. The attack Obstruct lists 90 damage. The cost is Darkness, Colorless. During your opponent's next turn, prevent all damage done to this Pokémon by attacks from Basic Pokémon. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "It evolved after experiencing numerous fights. While crossing its arms, it lets out a shout that would make any opponent flinch." The regulation mark is D.

I keep a set binder for Astral Radiance Trainer Gallery, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Astral Radiance Trainer Gallery set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Obstagoon can fill a slot in Generation 8 binder (Galar). Themed lists that include this exact card are Galarian forms and Trainer Gallery. I still need this card.
