This vintage Dark Flareon trading card comes from the 1997 Japanese Pokémon Team Rocket expansion (the “Po-Go! Pokedex” set, known as Rocket Gang). It features Mitsuhiro Arita’s iconic illustration of Flareon ablaze in vivid oranges and yellows, with a rainbow-foil holographic background behind the Fire-type Eeveelution. The card’s yellow border and Team Rocket “R” symbol mark it as a rare collectible from the early Dark Pokémon era. Longtime collectors prize this card for its nostalgia and artwork, and players appreciate its classic Fire-type attacks. Notably, this Japanese release was the first Dark Flareon card ever printed in the TCG, predating its later Western debut and adding to its historical appeal.
