Price: $35.00
Emboar Illustration Rare from the Scarlet & Violet White Flare set, clocking in as a holo with 180 HP and card number 098/086, in raw condition straight from a fresh pack pull. This one’s got that full-art vibe where Emboar looks like it’s charging through a fiery landscape, muscles bulging and flames roaring out— the illustrator really captured the beast mode energy without overdoing it. The holo pattern shimmers across the artwork, picking up light in a way that makes the fire effects pop when you tilt it just right.
On the card text side, it’s a Stage 2 Fire-type Pokémon evolving from Pignite, packing 180 HP to tank some hits. Its Ability is Inferno Fervor, which lets you attach an extra Fire Energy from your discard pile once per turn if it’s your Active Pokémon—handy for building up steam. Then there’s the main attack, Blazing Charge, costing three Fire Energy for 150 damage, but it discards an Energy attached to this Pokémon afterward. Solid for aggressive plays, though you gotta watch that Energy management. Weakness to Water, naturally, with a Retreat Cost of three— heavy hitter that doesn’t back down easy.
This set dropped in 2024 as part of the Scarlet & Violet expansion wave in Japan, focusing on those illustration rares with unique arts that stand out from the standard prints. Raw copies often show up with decent centering, but watch for those slight off-centers on the borders that plague a lot of SV-era cards; the card stock is thicker than older gens, which helps with durability but can lead to minor print lines if you’re inspecting closely.
For raw condition, assume it’s coming clean: sharp corners without dings, edges smooth with no whitening creeping in yet, surface free of scratches or clouding, and that holo foil flashing bright under shop lights. No major defects, just the usual factory variances that make each one a bit unique.
Sleeve it up for your binder or let it ride solo in a top loader— either way, it’s ready for the table.
