Dark Flareon Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Dark Flareon stands out as part of Team Rocket, the landmark 2000 expansion that introduced Dark Pokémon to the English TCG and gave classic Kanto favorites a more aggressive, villain-themed twist.
Set Lore
In the Team Rocket set, Dark Pokémon were designed with lower HP and harder-hitting attacks than their regular counterparts, which fits Dark Flareon’s risky, explosive "Playing with Fire" attack perfectly.
Artist
Dark Flareon was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the defining artists of early Pokémon cards, whose work helped transform simple Game Boy sprite references into some of the hobby’s most iconic imagery.
In-Game
Because Flareon evolves from Eevee with a Fire Stone in the original games, Dark Flareon taps straight into the same Gen I evolution nostalgia that made Eevee’s branching evolutions such a huge part of Pokémon’s early identity.
Card History
Flareon has long been one of the anime’s signature Eeveelutions, with Pokédex entries in the series emphasizing the same superheated flame-breathing power that Dark Flareon’s flavor text leans into.
