From the 2023 Japanese Pokémon TCG Scarlet & Violet (SV3) expansion "Ruler of the Black Flame," this Houndour Art Rare (No. 115/108) is a collectible highlight. Illustrated by Kyupiyama, the full-art holofoil scene shows a pack of Houndour pups in a dimly lit alley; the textured foil highlights each pup’s dark coat and glowing eyes. Its alternate-art design and AR rarity give it special appeal to collectors, especially fans of Gen II Dark-type Pokémon and Japanese set exclusives. In gameplay, Houndour’s “Pack Coordination” move can attach Dark Energy to multiple benched Houndour at once, adding a fun strategic twist for players building Dark-type decks.
