Groudon (#383) has 33 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 21 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2026. The earliest other card is Groudon ex 2/40 in Nintendo Black Star Promos (2003). That card is named Groudon ex, while this one is Groudon. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. Kazuo Yazawa illustrated that card, and Masakazu Fukuda illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 4. 26 other cards of Groudon list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Masakazu Fukuda. I count 471 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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. Groudon can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
