Provenance

Where it came from

Houndour card number 55/101 was released as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game expansion Plasma Blast, which debuted in English markets in August 2013. This set was based on the Japanese 'Megalo Cannon' expansion and served as the final chapter of the Black & White series' Plasma Storm storyline, centering on the technological and thematic influence of Team Plasma within the Unova region.

The card features artwork by illustrator match, who depicted the dark-type Pokémon in a characteristic snarling stance consistent with its aggressive lore. As a common card, it was designed as an accessible entry point for players looking to incorporate dark-type mechanics into their decks during the Plasma era, and it remains a staple piece for collectors focused on completing the expansive Black & White generation sets.
