The earliest other card is Graveler 37/62 in Fossil (1999). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Aya Kusube illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 19 other cards of Graveler list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Aya Kusube. I count 127 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Expedition Base Set set binder is where a full Expedition Base Set set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Graveler can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
