I keep a set binder for Forbidden Light, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Forbidden Light set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Amaura can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). Themed lists that include this exact card are Fossil Pokémon and Atsuko Nishida cards, later series. I still need this card.
