Both list the rarity Uncommon. 26 other cards of Charmeleon list a different HP.

I keep a set binder for POP Series 5, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the POP Series 5 set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Charmeleon can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards, Delta Species cards, Kanto starters, without Charizard, and POP Series. I still need this card.
