The earliest other card is Sunkern 78/111 in Neo Genesis (2000). That card lists 40 HP, and this one lists 50 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated that card, and 0313 illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 1. 9 other cards of Sunkern list a different HP.

Cosmic Eclipse set binder is where a full Cosmic Eclipse set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Sunkern can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
