The earliest other card is Persian 42/64 in Jungle (1999). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Yukiko Baba illustrated this one. 31 other cards of Persian list a different HP.

Team Up set binder is where a full Team Up set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Persian can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
