Scarlet & Violet set binder is where a full Scarlet & Violet set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Spiritomb can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). Themed lists that include this exact card are Halloween: Ghost Pokémon. I still need this card.
