I keep a set binder for Evolving Skies, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Evolving Skies set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Sylveon can fill a slot in Generation 6 binder (Kalos). Themed lists that include this exact card are Eevee and the Eeveelutions and Rapid Strike. I still need this card.
