Dragonite (#149) has 48 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 30 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Dragonite 5/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card is named Dragonite, while this one is Dragonite V. That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 230 HP. Both list the rarity Promo. Toshinao Aoki illustrated that card, and Saki Hayashiro illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 43 other cards of Dragonite list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Saki Hayashiro. I count 40 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

SWSH Black Star Promos set binder is where a full SWSH Black Star Promos set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Dragonite can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Dratini, Dragonair, and Dragonite. I still need this card.
