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