Emboar 098/086 from the SV: White Flare set, sitting as an Illustration Rare in raw near mint condition. This one’s got that full-art vibe with Emboar charging forward in a fiery blast, flames twisting around like they’re alive. The holo catches light in weird ways, throwing sparks across the card when you tilt it just right.
It’s a Fire-type Stage 2 evolution, clocking in at 170 HP. Ability’s Heat Boost, letting you attach extra Fire Energy from your discard pile to your Pokémon once per turn if Emboar’s in the Active Spot. Attacks include Flare Blitz for 150 damage, but it hits Emboar for 30 recoil, and a basic Fire Energy punch for 50. Solid for building a deck around aggressive plays, especially if you’re into fire synergies that ramp up quick.
Came out in the Scarlet & Violet era around 2023, part of those Japanese packs that hit with bold illustrations. Raw copies from this printing often show up with decent centering, though some have that slight off-kilter border quirk common in SV runs—nothing wild here, edges line up mostly even. Stock feels sturdy, not too thin like older stuff.
In near mint shape, corners are sharp with no real dings, just the tiniest whisper of wear if you squint under light. Edges hold up clean, no whitening or chipping, surface is smooth without scratches, and the holo foil pops without any clouding or dents. Centering’s about 60/40 top-bottom, pretty standard for these Illustration Rares, keeping the art framed nicely without cropping into the borders.
Feels like finding an old lighter that still sparks on the first try—sleeve it up or let it ride raw, either way it’s got presence.
