What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may look at the top 3 cards of your deck, choose 1 of them, and put it into your hand. Discard the other 2 cards. This power can't be used if Infernape is affected by a Special Condition.
Search your discard pile for 8 Fire Energy cards, show them to your opponent, and shuffle them into your deck. (This attack does nothing if you don't have 8 Fire Energy cards in your discard pile.)
Put this card onto your Active Infernape. Infernape LV.X can use any attack, Poké-Power, or Poké-Body from its previous level.

Where it came from
The Infernape LV.X card was released as part of the Diamond & Pearl expansion in 2007, marking the debut of the 'Level X' mechanic in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This phase of the game introduced higher-power evolutions that could be placed atop existing cards to grant access to new attacks and higher hit points, reflecting the transition into the fourth generation of the franchise. The card was designed to capitalize on the popularity of Infernape, the final evolutionary form of the Sinnoh region starter Chimchar, which was a featured mascot of the Diamond & Pearl era.
The artwork for this specific card was rendered by Ryo Ueda, an illustrator well-known for his dynamic, action-oriented style in the Pokémon TCG during the mid-2000s. Ueda sought to capture the fiery intensity and agile nature of the Flame Pokémon, utilizing bold lighting and sharp angles characteristic of the LV.X series' distinct holographic foil treatment. Upon its release, the card was highly sought after by competitive players due to its 'Flare Up' attack and the strategic advantage the LV.X mechanic provided, cementing its status as a foundational piece of the late-2000s competitive meta.
