Tapu Fini (#788) has 9 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 6 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2017 to 2021. The earliest other card is Tapu Fini SM92/248 in SM Black Star Promos (2017). That card is named Tapu Fini, while this one is Tapu Fini-GX. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 170 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo GX. Sanosuke Sakuma illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 1. 5 other cards of Tapu Fini list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads 5ban Graphics. I count 1,629 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Burning Shadows set binder is where a full Burning Shadows set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Tapu Fini can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). Themed lists that include this exact card are Island guardians. I still need this card.
