Price: $31.90
Emboar 098/086 from the Scarlet & Violet series, illustration rare holo in raw condition. This one’s got that bold, fiery vibe with Emboar charging forward in a dynamic pose, flames bursting everywhere. The artwork pops with intense colors, and the holo foil adds a subtle shimmer that shifts under the light, making those fire effects look alive without overwhelming the details.
It’s a Fire-type Stage 2 evolution from Pignite, clocking in at 170 HP. The Ability is something like Blaze Starter, letting you attach extra Energy from your discard pile to your Fire Pokémon once per turn if it’s your Active. Attacks include Heat Crash for 130 damage with a coin flip to avoid self-damage, and a beefier one like Flare Blitz that hits for 200 but discards all Energy attached. Solid for Fire decks that need heavy hitters, though it requires some setup to get rolling.
This card hails from the 2024 Scarlet & Violet: Paldean Fates set, part of the English print run that expanded on the Japanese Shiny Treasure ex. Raw copies often show up with decent centering, but watch for the usual quirks like slight whitening on edges from pack pulls or minor print lines in the holo layer—nothing too wild, as the card stock here is pretty sturdy compared to older sets. It’s not super common in pulls, given the illustration rare slot, but the English versions match the Japanese quality without major variances.
In raw shape, this Emboar usually holds up with sharp corners that might have tiny dings from handling, edges that stay clean unless it’s been shuffled around a lot, and a surface free of deep scratches, though light swirling can appear under bright lights. The holo flash is crisp, giving that fresh snap when you tilt it just right, no major foil scratches or clouding.
Feels like the kind of card you’d pull and immediately debate keeping loose for the artwork. Sleeve it quick or send it to grading—your call.
