Hironobu Yoshida illustrated that card, and otumami illustrated this one. 33 other cards of Scizor list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads otumami. I count 44 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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