Volbeat (#313) has 9 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 9 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Volbeat 53/100 in Sandstorm (2003). Both list 60 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Kyoko Umemoto illustrated that card, and Midori Harada illustrated this one. 7 other cards of Volbeat list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Midori Harada. I count 352 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. Volbeat can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
