The earliest other card is Blacephalon SM221/248 in SM Black Star Promos (2017). That card is named Blacephalon, while this one is Blacephalon-GX. That card lists 110 HP, and this one lists 180 HP.

Lost Thunder set binder is where a full Lost Thunder set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Blacephalon can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). Themed lists that include this exact card are Ultra Beasts. I still need this card.
