Shiftry is Pokédex #275, generation 3 (Hoenn). Shiftry is a Stage 2 Darkness Pokémon with 140 HP. The card says it evolves from Nuzleaf. In this catalog that name is Nuzleaf (#274).

The attack Roll Up lists no damage number. The cost is Darkness, Colorless. Flip 3 coins. If any of them are heads, your opponent reveals his or her hand. Then, for each heads, discard a card from your opponent's hand. Otherworldly Return is another attack lists 60 damage. The cost is Darkness, Colorless, Colorless. Put a Trainer card from your discard pile into your hand. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "By flapping its leafy fan, it can whip up gusts of 100 feet per second that can level houses."

Shiftry (#275) has 22 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 18 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2025. The earliest other card is Shiftry 12/100 in Sandstorm (2003). That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 140 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and TOKIYA illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 1. 17 other cards of Shiftry list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads TOKIYA. I count 93 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

BREAKpoint set binder is where a full BREAKpoint set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Shiftry can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
