Pupitar (#247) has 26 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 23 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2025. The earliest other card is Pupitar 45/75 in Neo Discovery (2001). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Hironobu Yoshida illustrated that card, and Shigenori Negishi illustrated this one. 23 other cards of Pupitar list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Shigenori Negishi. I count 151 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Paldea Evolved set binder is where a full Paldea Evolved set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Pupitar can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
