Swellow is a Stage 1 Colorless Pokémon with 70 HP. In the Pokédex this is Swellow (#277), generation 3 (Hoenn). The card says it evolves from Taillow. In this catalog that name is Taillow (#276).
Naoyo Kimura illustrated this card. The same name is on 256 other cards in the catalog.
Swellow (#277) has 13 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 12 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2003 to 2025. The earliest other card is Swellow 46/109 in Ruby & Sapphire (2003). Both list 70 HP. Both list the rarity Uncommon. Ken Sugimori illustrated that card, and Naoyo Kimura illustrated this one. 7 other cards of Swellow list a different HP.
The attack Peck lists 20 damage. The cost is Colorless. Skill Dive is another attack lists no damage number. The cost is Colorless, Colorless, Colorless. Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 40 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Weakness is Lightning ×2. Resistance is Fighting -30.
I keep a set binder for Emerald, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Emerald set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Swellow can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). I still need this card.
