Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and Naoyo Kimura illustrated this one. 10 other cards of Minun list a different HP.

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