The attack Thunder Shock lists 30 damage. The cost is Lightning. Flip a coin. If heads, your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Paralyzed. Weakness is Fighting ×2. The flavor text reads "As it flies, it scatters electricity around, so bird Pokémon keep their distance. That's why Emolga can keep all its food to itself." The regulation mark is E.

Emolga (#587) has 17 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 14 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Emolga 32/98 in Emerging Powers (2011). Both list 70 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Kouki Saitou illustrated that card, and Saya Tsuruta illustrated this one. 5 other cards of Emolga list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Saya Tsuruta. I count 123 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Crown Zenith set binder is where a full Crown Zenith set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Emolga can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). Themed lists that include this exact card are Pikachu's friends and Saya Tsuruta cards. I still need this card.
