Nidoqueen (#031) has 18 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 15 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2025. The earliest other card is Nidoqueen 7/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Naoyo Kimura illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 16 other cards of Nidoqueen list a different HP.

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

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