I keep a set binder for Paldea Evolved, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Paldea Evolved set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Gothorita can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). Themed lists that include this exact card are Night and moon Pokémon. I still need this card.
