Camerupt (#323) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 20 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Camerupt 4/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Naoyo Kimura illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 22 other cards of Camerupt list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Naoyo Kimura. I count 256 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Dragon set binder is where a full Dragon set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Camerupt can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
