The earliest other card is Morpeko SWSH012/307 in SWSH Black Star Promos (2019). Both list 80 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Common. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Sanosuke Sakuma illustrated this one. The regulation mark there is D, and here it is E. 28 other cards of Morpeko list a different HP.

The attack Targeted Spark lists no damage number. The cost is Lightning, Colorless. This attack does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Fighting ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It carries electrically roasted seeds with it as if they're precious treasures. No matter how much it eats, it always gets hungry again in short order." The regulation mark is E.

I keep a set binder for Fusion Strike, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Fusion Strike set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Morpeko can fill a slot in Generation 8 binder (Galar). I still need this card.
