I keep a set binder for Majestic Dawn, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Majestic Dawn set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Munchlax can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). Themed lists that include this exact card are Snorlax and Munchlax and Baby Pokémon. I still need this card.
