The earliest other card is Shinx DP15/56 in DP Black Star Promos (2007). Both list 60 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Common. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Ken Sugimori illustrated this one. 9 other cards of Shinx list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Ken Sugimori. I count 1,112 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Diamond & Pearl set binder is where a full Diamond & Pearl set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Shinx can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
