Dragonite (#149) has 48 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 29 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Dragonite 5/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card is named Dragonite, while this one is Dragonite δ. That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. Toshinao Aoki illustrated that card, and Ryo Ueda illustrated this one. 42 other cards of Dragonite list a different HP.

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

Delta Species set binder is where a full Delta Species set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Dragonite can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Delta Species cards. I still need this card.
