Hitmonchan (#107) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 20 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2023. The earliest other card is Hitmonchan 7/102 in Base (1999). Both list 70 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Hisao Nakamura illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 1. 14 other cards of Hitmonchan list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Hisao Nakamura. I count 71 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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