I keep a set binder for Darkness Ablaze, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Darkness Ablaze set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Salamence can fill a slot in Generation 3 binder (Hoenn). Themed lists that include this exact card are VMAX cards. I still need this card.
