Vikavolt (#738) has 15 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 11 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2017 to 2026. The earliest other card is Vikavolt 52/149 in Sun & Moon (2017). That card is named Vikavolt, while this one is Vikavolt-GX. That card lists 150 HP, and this one lists 240 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Rare Rainbow. Hitoshi Ariga illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 3, and here it is 1. 13 other cards of Vikavolt list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads 5ban Graphics. I count 1,629 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Guardians Rising set binder is where a full Guardians Rising set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Vikavolt can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). I still need this card.
