Galarian Darmanitan, Darkness Ablaze #44

Darmanitan is Pokédex #555, generation 5 (Unova). Galarian Darmanitan is a Stage 1 Water Pokémon with 140 HP. The card says it evolves from Galarian Darumaka. In this catalog that name is Darumaka (#554).

Galarian Darmanitan sits at 44/189 in Darkness Ablaze, position 44 of 201. Before it is 43 Galarian Darumaka, and after it is 45 Vanillite. The set belongs to the Sword & Shield series. It was released on 14 August 2020. The printed size is 189. This checklist is longer, at 201 cards. The listed rarity is Rare.

The attack Blizzard lists 80 damage. The cost is Water, Colorless, Colorless. This attack also does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Crushing Headbutt is another attack lists 170 damage. The cost is Water, Water, Colorless, Colorless. During your next turn, this Pokémon can't use Crushing Headbutt. Weakness is Metal ×2. Retreat cost is 3. The flavor text reads "On days when blizzards blow through, it comes down to where people live. It stashes food in the snowball on its head, taking it home for later." The regulation mark is D.

Darmanitan (#555) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Darmanitan 25/114 in Black & White (2011). That card is named Darmanitan, while this one is Galarian Darmanitan. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 140 HP. Both list the rarity Rare. Naoki Saito illustrated that card, and Masakazu Fukuda illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 12 other cards of Darmanitan list a different HP.

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

Darkness Ablaze set binder is where a full Darkness Ablaze set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Darmanitan can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). Themed lists that include this exact card are Galarian forms. I still need this card.
