Houndoom

Description

Houndoom #034/198 is a Common Stage 1 Fire-type Pokémon card from the 2023 Scarlet & Violet base set. This release is part of the SV1 set, showcasing a classic design typical of the era. As a Stage 1 Pokémon, it evolves from Houndour, expanding the collection for trainers building out their roster. The card features two distinct attacks: Colorless Sharp Fang, which deals 30 damage, and Fire Blast, which deals 150 damage but requires the player to discard an Energy from Houndoom. This mechanic adds strategic depth, requiring careful resource management during gameplay. The card has 120 Hit Points and a retreat cost of 2, providing a balance between offensive power and mobility. For collectors, this card represents a key component of the Scarlet & Violet series. The set code SV1 identifies it within the broader 2023 release, making it essential for those completing the base set. The artwork is credited to artist hncl, adding to the card's identity. The regulation mark G confirms its official status within the current Pokémon TCG framework. Houndoom's flavor text describes its eerie howls causing other Pokémon to retreat to their nests, reflecting its Pokédex number 229. This product appeals to both competitive players looking to build decks and collectors seeking to fill gaps in their Scarlet & Violet collection. The Common rarity makes it accessible for building larger sets or experimenting with deck strategies. Whether used in play or added to a binder, this card remains a fundamental piece of the Scarlet & Violet era.
