I keep a set binder for SWSH Black Star Promos, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the SWSH Black Star Promos set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Zeraora can fill a slot in Generation 7 binder (Alola). Themed lists that include this exact card are Mythical Pokémon, from Sword & Shield on. I still need this card.
