Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Shimaris Yukichi illustrated this one. 11 other cards of Galvantula list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Shimaris Yukichi. I count 11 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

White Flare set binder is where a full White Flare set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Galvantula can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
