Collector Insights
Houndoom is a Darkness-type Pokémon with 90 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It features two attacks: Fire Counterattack, which costs one Darkness energy to deal 20 damage plus 60 additional damage if the opponent has any Fighting Pokémon in play, and Dark Roar, requiring two Darkness energies to deal 50 damage while forcing the opponent to discard a card from their hand. The Pokémon has a resistance to Psychic-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, but is weak to Fighting-type attacks, taking double damage. It belongs to the HeartGold & SoulSilver series, released as part of the HS—Undaunted set on August 18, 2010. The card’s artwork is by artist Kagemaru Himeno, and its flavor text describes a Pokémon whose eerie howls cause others to flee to their nests. Houndoom’s design reflects its role as a formidable Dark-type battler with strategic offensive options. The card’s rarity is listed as Rare Holo, emphasizing its collectible value.
Upon hearing its eerie howls, other Pokémon get the shivers and head straight back to their nests.
