The earliest other card is Tapu Koko SM30/248 in SM Black Star Promos (2017). That card is named Tapu Koko, while this one is Tapu Koko ◇. That card lists 110 HP, and this one lists 130 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Prism Star. kirisAki illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. 23 other cards of Tapu Koko list a different HP.

Dance of the Ancients is listed as Ability. Once during your turn (before your attack), if this Pokémon is on your Bench, you may choose 2 of your Benched Pokémon and attach a Lightning Energy card from your discard pile to each of them. If you do, discard all cards from this Pokémon and put it in the Lost Zone. The attack Mach Bolt lists 120 damage. The cost is Lightning, Lightning, Colorless. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Metal -20. Retreat cost is 1. The card text says: ◇ (Prism Star) Rule: You can't have more than 1 ◇ card with the same name in your deck. If a ◇ card would go to the discard pile, put it in the Lost Zone instead. The flavor text reads "It confuses its enemies by flying too quickly for the eye to follow. It has a hair-trigger temper but forgets what made it angry an instant later."

I keep a set binder for Team Up, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Team Up set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Tapu Koko can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). Themed lists that include this exact card are Island guardians and Prism Star and Star cards. I still need this card.
