Ursaring (#217) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 13 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2022. The earliest other card is Ursaring 15/75 in Neo Discovery (2001). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 140 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Uncommon. Naoyo Kimura illustrated that card, and Hasegawa Saki illustrated this one. 13 other cards of Ursaring list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Hasegawa Saki. I count 7 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

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