The earliest other card is Mightyena 10/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare. Atsuko Nishida illustrated that card, and kirisAki illustrated this one. 20 other cards of Mightyena list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads kirisAki. I count 189 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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