Primarina (#730) has 6 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 4 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2017 to 2026. The earliest other card is Primarina 41/149 in Sun & Moon (2017). That card is named Primarina, while this one is Primarina-GX. That card lists 150 HP, and this one lists 250 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Promo. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. 4 other cards of Primarina list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads 5ban Graphics. I count 1,629 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

SM Black Star Promos set binder is where a full SM Black Star Promos set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Primarina can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). Themed lists that include this exact card are Alola starters. I still need this card.
