The earliest other card is Vanilluxe 29/101 in Noble Victories (2011). Both list 130 HP. Both list the rarity Rare. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Ayaka Yoshida illustrated this one.

The illustrator line reads Ayaka Yoshida. I count 128 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

BREAKthrough set binder is where a full BREAKthrough set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Vanilluxe can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). I still need this card.
