The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo. 5ban Graphics illustrated that card, and Souichirou Gunjima illustrated this one. 12 other cards of Thundurus list a different HP.

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. Thundurus can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
