How this Honchkrow printing works

Stage 1 Darkness Pokémon. Evil Admonition scales with the opponent's board; earlier printings have different attacks, so the named attack matters.
Deck choices and printing differences
Use the Dark deck library and budget lists to compare support cards. These are browsing routes, not a claim that every deck includes this printing. Exact inclusion is established by the 20-card lists and their cited sources.
The printing table separates collector records, including alternate artwork where the database records it separately. A repeated name alone does not establish an identical attack or Ability. Match set, number, and printed effect before substituting cards. For rarity restrictions and eligibility, see the trading guide; being listed in a pack does not guarantee that every version can be traded.
