The earliest other card is Unown [J] 38/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card is named Unown [J], while this one is Unown [X]. That card lists 40 HP, and this one lists 50 HP.

[XXXXX] is listed as Pokémon Power. Whenever 1 of your Pokémon with Unown in its name uses its Hidden Power attack, flip a coin until you get tails. That attack does 10 more damage for each heads. If you have more than 1 Unown [X] in play, use only 1 [XXXXX] each turn. The attack Hidden Power lists 10 damage. The cost is Psychic. Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The card text says: You may have up to 4 Basic Pokémon cards in your deck with Unown in their names. The flavor text reads "It is believed that the variety of types of this Pokémon were created by evolutionary adaptation, as each possesses a different ability."

I keep a set binder for Neo Destiny, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Neo Destiny set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Unown can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Unown. I still need this card.
