Silver Tempest Trainer Gallery set binder is where a full Silver Tempest Trainer Gallery set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Malamar can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). Themed lists that include this exact card are Trainer Gallery and Rapid Strike. I still need this card.
