I keep a set binder for Diamond & Pearl, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Diamond & Pearl set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Goldeen can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Atsuko Nishida cards, early series. I still need this card.
