The earliest other card is Giratina LV.X DP38/56 in DP Black Star Promos (2007). That card is named Giratina LV.X, while this one is Giratina-EX. That card lists 130 HP, and this one lists 180 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo EX. Shizurow illustrated that card, and Eske Yoshinob illustrated this one. 28 other cards of Giratina list a different HP.

Dragons Exalted set binder is where a full Dragons Exalted set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Giratina can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). Themed lists that include this exact card are Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina. I still need this card.
