Houndour 204/197 Sv03: Obsidian Flames Holo Pokemon TCG Card Near Mint Condition
Price: $15.00
Houndour from the SV Black Star Promos, numbered SV03, comes as an ultra rare illustration rare in raw near mint condition. This one’s got that dark, brooding vibe with Houndour lurking in a shadowy cave, flames flickering around its paws and mouth— the artwork pops with those deep reds and blacks against the holo background. It’s a Fire-type Basic Pokémon with 70 HP, no Ability listed, but it packs Singe for one Fire energy that might burn the defending Pokémon, and Rear Kick for two Colorless that hits for 30 damage while switching to the bench. Released in 2023 as part of the Scarlet & Violet era tie-ins, this promo dropped with the Obsidian Flames set, often bundled in prerelease kits or special boxes, and raw copies sometimes show up with minor print lines on the holo foil due to the high-gloss finish on these illustration rares. Centering tends to be solid on most pulls, though edges can have that faint whitening if it’s been shuffled around in a deck box too much. In this raw state, the corners are sharp with no dings, edges clean without noticeable wear, surface free of scratches or clouding, and the holo flash still delivers that subtle sparkle when you tilt it under light, highlighting the fiery details without overwhelming the art. You know how these promos can feel a bit overlooked next to main set pulls, but flipping this one in your binder always reminds you of those early SV tournament vibes. Sleeve it up for a deck or let it chill in a top loader—either way, it’s got that quiet presence.
