Deoxys (#386) has 44 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 17 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2005 to 2026. The earliest other card is Deoxys 16/107 in Deoxys (2005). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 120 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Rare Holo. Hironobu Yoshida illustrated that card, and Kouki Saitou illustrated this one. 39 other cards of Deoxys list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Kouki Saitou. I count 652 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Fusion Strike set binder is where a full Fusion Strike set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Deoxys can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mythical Pokémon, from Sword & Shield on, Rapid Strike, and Single Strike. I still need this card.
