Dark Houndoom [Reverse Holo] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Dark Houndoom is one of the headline holo rares in EX Team Rocket Returns, and the set’s official checklist notes that cards 1–14 were issued in two foil versions, which is why this card exists as a coveted Reverse Holo chase alongside its regular holo print.
Set Lore
This card comes from EX Team Rocket Returns, the English-language counterpart to Japan’s Rocket Gang Strikes Back, a set built around the comeback of Team Rocket and the return of the iconic “Dark Pokémon” concept.
Card History
Dark Houndoom’s card design leans hard into Rocket-style disruption: Shakedown randomly discards from the opponent’s hand, while Dark Fire can cash in Fire or Darkness Energy for a harder hit, perfectly matching the ruthless feel of a Dark Pokémon.
In-Game
The card’s dual Fire/Darkness typing is especially flavorful because Houndoom’s main-series identity has long been tied to sinister fire, with Pokédex entries describing flames whose burns never stop hurting and eerie howls that send other Pokémon back to their nests.
Artist
This version was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, one of the most celebrated artists in Pokémon TCG history, giving Dark Houndoom extra collector appeal because Arita’s name is deeply associated with many of the hobby’s most iconic cards.
