The earliest other card is Staryu 65/102 in Base (1999). That card is named Staryu, while this one is Misty's Staryu. Both list 40 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Keiji Kinebuchi illustrated that card, and Ken Sugimori illustrated this one. 24 other cards of Staryu list a different HP.

Gym Challenge set binder is where a full Gym Challenge set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Staryu can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Trainer's Pokémon, Kanto Gym Leaders and their Pokémon, and Misty and her Pokémon. I still need this card.
