Piloswine is Pokédex #221, generation 2 (Johto). Piloswine is a Stage 1 Fighting Pokémon with 100 HP. The card says it evolves from Swinub. In this catalog that name is Swinub (#220). The card lists Mamoswine, Mamoswine (#473) under evolves to.

The flavor text reads "Because the long hair all over its body obscures its sight, it just keeps charging repeatedly."

Piloswine (#221) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2000 to 2025. The earliest other card is Piloswine 44/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and MAHOU illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 8 other cards of Piloswine list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads MAHOU. I count 122 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

BREAKthrough set binder is where a full BREAKthrough set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Piloswine can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
