Hoopa (#720) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 14 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2013 to 2026. The earliest other card is Hoopa-EX XY71/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card is named Hoopa-EX, while this one is Hoopa V. That card lists 170 HP, and this one lists 220 HP. Both list the rarity Promo. Eske Yoshinob illustrated that card, and takuyoa illustrated this one. 17 other cards of Hoopa list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads takuyoa. I count 64 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. Hoopa can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mythical Pokémon, from Sword & Shield on. I still need this card.
