I keep a set binder for Gym Challenge, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Gym Challenge set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Gastly can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Gengar and the Gastly line, Trainer's Pokémon, Atsuko Nishida cards, early series, Kanto Gym Leaders and their Pokémon, and Sabrina and her Pokémon. I still need this card.
