Shining Fates Shiny Vault set binder is where a full Shining Fates Shiny Vault set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Linoone can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Galarian forms. I still need this card.
