I keep a set binder for Twilight Masquerade, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Twilight Masquerade set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Froslass can fill a slot in Generation 4 binder (Sinnoh). Themed lists that include this exact card are Halloween: Ghost Pokémon and Winter: Ice Pokémon. I still need this card.
