I keep a set binder for Furious Fists, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Furious Fists set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Pikachu can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are All Pikachu cards. I still need this card.
