Both list the rarity Rare. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Lee HyunJung illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 1, and here it is 2. 9 other cards of Wormadam list a different HP.

Brilliant Stars set binder is where a full Brilliant Stars set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Wormadam can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
