The earliest other card is Raticate 40/102 in Base (1999). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 70 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Shigenori Negishi illustrated this one. 18 other cards of Raticate list a different HP.

Unbroken Bonds set binder is where a full Unbroken Bonds set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Raticate can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
