Dragonite (#149) has 48 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 29 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Dragonite 5/53 in Wizards Black Star Promos (1999). That card is named Dragonite, while this one is Dragonite-GX. That card lists 90 HP, and this one lists 250 HP. Both list the rarity Promo. Toshinao Aoki illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one. Retreat cost there is 2, and here it is 3. 43 other cards of Dragonite list a different HP.

SM Black Star Promos set binder is where a full SM Black Star Promos set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Dragonite can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Dratini, Dragonair, and Dragonite. I still need this card.
