Cryogonal (#615) has 9 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 7 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2011 to 2025. The earliest other card is Cryogonal 32/101 in Noble Victories (2011). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. The rarity there is Uncommon, and here it is Common. Masakazu Fukuda illustrated that card, and kirisAki illustrated this one. 3 other cards of Cryogonal list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads kirisAki. I count 189 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. Cryogonal can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
