The earliest other card is Scolipede 54/114 in Black & White (2011). That card lists 150 HP, and this one lists 160 HP. Both list the rarity Rare. Masakazu Fukuda illustrated that card, and Ayaka Yoshida illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 4. 5 other cards of Scolipede list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Ayaka Yoshida. I count 128 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. Scolipede can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
