The earliest other card is Marshtomp 40/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Ken Sugimori illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 3. 9 other cards of Marshtomp list a different HP.

Celestial Storm set binder is where a full Celestial Storm set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Marshtomp can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
