The earliest other card is Greninja-EX XY20/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card is named Greninja-EX, while this one is Greninja ex. That card lists 170 HP, and this one lists 310 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Special Illustration Rare. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and akagi illustrated this one. 37 other cards of Greninja list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads akagi. I count 20 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Twilight Masquerade set binder is where a full Twilight Masquerade set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Greninja can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). Themed lists that include this exact card are Kalos starters, Froakie, Frogadier, and Greninja, Special Illustration Rares, and Tera Pokémon. I still need this card.
