#4 Houndoom - Neo Discovery (neo2)
Houndoom is a Darkness-type Pokémon from the Neo series, featured in the Neo Discovery set released in 2001. It has 70 HP and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. The card is illustrated by Shin-ichi Yoshida and carries a Rare Holo rarity. Houndoom boasts a resistance to Psychic-type attacks, reducing damage by 30. Its attacks include Crunch, which costs Darkness and two Colorless energies to deal 30 damage, and Flamethrower, requiring two Fire and one Colorless energy for 50 damage. The Crunch attack’s effect grants an additional 20 damage to the Defending Pokémon if an attack damages it during the next turn. The Flamethrower attack mandates discarding a Fire Energy card attached to Houndoom, or the attack fails. The card’s flavor text reflects its intimidating presence, describing its eerie howls that cause other Pokémon to retreat to safety.
