Card Details
Set
Character Background
Houndoom G from Platinum is a clean little pressure card that leans hard into tempo and soft control. As a Basic Fire Pokémon, it comes down early, and Black Cry is the real lure: 20 damage plus a retreat lock and Poké-Power shutoff can strand fragile targets and buy crucial turns against setup-heavy decks. That effect is especially nasty when paired with gust effects or other ways to force an Active Pokémon you want trapped. Dark Slash gives it a respectable finisher, reaching 60 for one discarded Darkness Energy, so the best builds treat Houndoom G as a hybrid attacker rather than a pure wall. It fits best in Fire/Darkness shells that can accelerate or recycle energy, and it appreciates disruption support so the opponent can’t simply pivot out. Use it to deny tempo, pick off evolving lines, and keep awkward Active Pokémon stuck long enough to snowball the board.
