The short version
Volcarona is a Stage 1 Fire-type Pokémon with 120 HP, weak to Water and a retreat cost of 2. It is card 028 of 117 in Promo A, printed at Rare, and it turns up in the Vol. 3 pack. It evolves from Larvesta. 30 cards in the expansion are rarer than this one. Opening for it means about 363 packs to be reasonably sure of one, which at 2 free packs a day is 6 months. The art is by Shin Nagasawa, who has 75 other cards in the game.
Its burning body causes it to be unpopular in hot parts of the world, but in cold ones, Volcarona is revered as an embodiment of the sun.
