The earliest other card is Ledian 39/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 60 HP, and this one lists 90 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Sekio illustrated this one. 9 other cards of Ledian list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Sekio. I count 72 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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