Charizard (#006) has 106 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 51 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Charizard 4/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Charizard, while this one is Charizard-GX. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 250 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Promo. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 2. 100 other cards of Charizard 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. Charizard can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are All Charizard cards. I still need this card.
