I keep a set binder for Black Bolt, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Black Bolt set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Kyurem can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). Themed lists that include this exact card are Winter: Ice Pokémon and Box-art legendaries. I still need this card.
