Hoopa (#720) has 21 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 15 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2013 to 2026. The earliest other card is Hoopa-EX XY85/211 in XY Black Star Promos (2013). That card lists 140 HP, and this one lists 170 HP. Both list the rarity Promo. Hitoshi Ariga illustrated that card, and Eske Yoshinob illustrated this one. 19 other cards of Hoopa list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Eske Yoshinob. I count 177 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

XY Black Star Promos set binder is where a full XY Black Star Promos set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Hoopa can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). I still need this card.
