#131 Houndour - Obsidian Flames (sv3)

Houndour is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Scarlet & Violet series, featured in the Obsidian Flames set released on 2023/08/11. It has an HP of 50 and requires one Colorless energy to retreat. The card’s attacks include "Coordinated Pack," which costs a single Darkness energy and allows the player to search their deck for a Basic Darkness Energy card to attach to each Benched Houndour before shuffling the deck. Another attack, "Focus Fangs," demands two energy types—Darkness and Colorless—and deals 30 damage if a coin flip results in heads, though it does nothing if tails. Houndour’s weaknesses make it vulnerable to Grass-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card’s flavor text highlights its social behavior, noting its ability to hunt in packs and communicate through varied vocalizations. Scav is the artist responsible for the card’s illustration. This Common rarity card offers strategic flexibility through its energy manipulation and conditional damage effects.
