Lore

Why it matters

Part of the 2002 Aquapolis expansion, this card is notable for its introduction of the Crystal Type mechanic, which allows the Pokémon to change its elemental type based on the energy attached to it. Collectors prize this holo-rare for its intricate art and its status as a cornerstone of the e-Card era, representing a significant technical shift in the Pokémon Trading Card Game.

Provenance

Where it came from

Released in 2003 as part of the Aquapolis expansion, this card represents the final major set of the e-Card Series for the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The set introduced the e-Reader technology, which allowed players to scan dot-codes on the side of the cards to unlock mini-games or Pokédex entries, marking a brief but experimental era in the game's hardware integration.

The card features artwork by Naoyo Kimura, a frequent illustrator for the franchise during this period. Kimura’s design utilizes the distinct, high-contrast borders and layout requirements of the e-Card era, emphasizing a dark, moody aesthetic for Houndoom that aligns with its Darkness typing. As a Rare Holo card, it remains highly sought after by collectors for its iconic holographic pattern and its status as a cornerstone of the limited-run Aquapolis set.
