Xerneas (#716) has 22 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2013 to 2026. The earliest other card is Xerneas XY05/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card lists 130 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and AKIRA EGAWA illustrated this one. 19 other cards of Xerneas list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads AKIRA EGAWA. I count 83 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Celebrations set binder is where a full Celebrations set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Xerneas can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). I still need this card.
