Sandaconda SV071/122 · Shining Fates Shiny Vault

Sandaconda is Pokédex #844, generation 8 (Galar). Sandaconda is a Stage 1 Fighting Pokémon with 140 HP. The card says it evolves from Silicobra. In this catalog that name is Silicobra (#843).

Sandaconda sits at SV071/122 in Shining Fates Shiny Vault, position 71 of 122. Before it is SV070 Silicobra, and after it is SV072 Clobbopus. The set belongs to the Sword & Shield series. It was released on 19 February 2021. The printed size is 122, and the checklist is the same length. The listed rarity is Rare Shiny.

The attack Coil lists 10 damage. The cost is Colorless. During your next turn, this Pokémon's attacks do 120 more damage to your opponent's Active Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance). Skull Bash is another attack lists 100 damage. The cost is Fighting, Colorless, Colorless. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 2. The flavor text reads "Its unique style of coiling allows it to blast sand out of its sand sac more efficiently." The regulation mark is D.

Sandaconda (#844) has 12 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 7 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2020 to 2025. The earliest other card is Sandaconda 109/202 in Sword & Shield (2020). Both list 140 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Rare Shiny. Kouki Saitou illustrated that card, and Shin Nagasawa illustrated this one. 9 other cards of Sandaconda list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Shin Nagasawa. I count 303 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Shining Fates Shiny Vault set binder is where a full Shining Fates Shiny Vault set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Sandaconda can fill a slot in Generation 8 binder (Galar). I still need this card.
