Absol (#359) has 29 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 23 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2025. The earliest other card is Absol 1/97 in Dragon (2003). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Naoyo Kimura illustrated that card, and kodama illustrated this one. 16 other cards of Absol list a different HP.
The illustrator line reads kodama. I count 86 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.
Champion's Path set binder is where a full Champion's Path set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Absol can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
