The earliest other card is Deoxys 16/107 in Deoxys (2005). That card lists 70 HP, and this one lists 110 HP. The rarity there is Rare, and here it is Rare Holo. Hironobu Yoshida illustrated that card, and kawayoo illustrated this one. 39 other cards of Deoxys list a different HP.

The attack Close Encounter lists no damage number. The cost is Colorless. If you go first, you can use this attack on your first turn. Draw 2 cards. Overdrive Smash is another attack lists 30 damage. The cost is Psychic, Colorless. During your next turn, this Pokémon's Overdrive Smash attack does 60 more damage (before applying Weakness and Resistance). Weakness is Psychic ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "DNA from a space virus mutated and became a Pokémon. It appears where auroras are seen."

I keep a set binder for Roaring Skies, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Roaring Skies set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Deoxys can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
