The earliest other card is Groudon ex 2/40 in Nintendo Black Star Promos (2003). That card is named Groudon ex, while this one is Primal Groudon-EX. That card lists 120 HP, and this one lists 240 HP. The rarity there is Promo, and here it is Rare Holo EX. Kazuo Yazawa illustrated that card, and 5ban Graphics illustrated this one.

Primal Clash set binder is where a full Primal Clash set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Groudon can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza. I still need this card.
