Zekrom (#644) has 35 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 19 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2026. The earliest other card is Zekrom BW005/101 in BW Black Star Promos (2011). Both list 130 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and nagimiso illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 18 other cards of Zekrom list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads nagimiso. I count 156 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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