Nintendo Black Star Promos set binder is where a full Nintendo Black Star Promos set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Rayquaza can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza and All Rayquaza cards. I still need this card.
