The earliest other card is Porygon-Z DP35/56 in DP Black Star Promos (2007). That card is named Porygon-Z, while this one is Porygon-Z G. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 80 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and Nobuyuki Fujimoto illustrated this one.

The illustrator line reads Nobuyuki Fujimoto. I count 1 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Arceus set binder is where a full Arceus set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Porygon-Z can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). I still need this card.
