The earliest other card is Geodude 47/62 in Fossil (1999). That card is named Geodude, while this one is Brock's Geodude. Both list 50 HP. The rarity there is Common, and here it is Uncommon.

The attack Tackle lists 10 damage. The cost is Colorless. Lucky Shot is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Fighting, Colorless. Choose 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon and flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 30 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) This attack can't be used if your opponent has no Benched Pokémon. Weakness is Grass ×2. Retreat cost is 1.

I keep a set binder for Gym Heroes, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Gym Heroes set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Geodude can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Trainer's Pokémon, Atsuko Nishida cards, early series, Kanto Gym Leaders and their Pokémon, and Brock and his Pokémon. I still need this card.
