The earliest other card is Ho-oh 52/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card is named Ho-oh, while this one is Ho-Oh. That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Ryo Ueda illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 36 other cards of Ho-Oh list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Ryo Ueda. I count 462 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Call of Legends set binder is where a full Call of Legends set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Ho-Oh can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
