Black Bolt set binder is where a full Black Bolt set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Serperior can fill a slot in Generation 5 binder (Unova). Themed lists that include this exact card are Unova starters and Special Illustration Rares. I still need this card.
