Team Up set binder is where a full Team Up set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Venusaur and Celebi can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto) and Generation 2 binder (Johto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mitsuhiro Arita cards, Kanto starters, without Charizard, and Card number 1. I still need this card.
