Description
The 2003 Pokémon Aquapolis Umbreon (H29) Holo Rare represents a pivotal moment in the early Trading Card Game era. As a Stage 1 Darkness-type Pokémon that evolves from Eevee, this card offers collectors a classic example of the series' foundational mechanics. Featuring artwork by Mitsuhiro Arita, the card displays the distinctive holofoil treatment characteristic of The premium inventory standards. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, Umbreon is valued for its strategic gameplay potential. Its Dark Moon ability allows players to look at their opponent's hand, providing crucial information advantage, while its Shadow Bind attack prevents the defending Pokémon from retreating. This combination of utility and power made it a staple in competitive play during the early 2000s. For investors and hobbyists alike, the Aquapolis set remains a cornerstone of Pokémon TCG history. Collectors often seek this card to complete their Aquapolis collection or to build nostalgic decks that reflect the game's rich heritage. The enduring popularity of Umbreon as a character ensures this card remains a relevant and desirable addition to any serious collection.

Abilities, attacks, oracle text, and flavor text printed on the card.
Ability: Dark Moon
As long as Umbreon is your Active Pokémon and has a Darkness Energy attached to it, once during your turn (before your attack), you may look at your opponent's hand. Choose from it a number of cards up to the number of Darkness Energy attached to Umbreon and shuffle them into your opponent's deck. Your opponent then draws the same number of cards from his or her deck. This power can't be used if Umbreon is affected by a Special Condition.
Attack: Shadow Bind (30)
The Defending Pokémon can't retreat during your opponent's next turn.
