Houndour is a Basic Darkness Pokémon with 50 HP. In the Pokédex this is Houndour (#228), generation 2 (Johto). The card lists Houndoom, Houndoom (#229) under evolves to.

Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card. The same name is on 656 other cards in the catalog.

Houndour (#228) has 31 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 22 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 2001 to 2025. The earliest other card is Houndour 5/75 in Neo Discovery (2001). Both list 50 HP. The rarity there is Rare Holo, and here it is Common. Aya Kusube illustrated that card, and Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this one. 12 other cards of Houndour list a different HP.

The attack Jump On lists 10+ damage. The cost is Darkness. Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 10 damage plus 10 more damage. Weakness is Fighting ×2. Resistance is Psychic -20. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "To corner prey, they check each other's location using barks that only they can understand."

I keep a set binder for Call of Legends, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Call of Legends set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Houndour can fill a slot in Generation 2 binder (Johto). I still need this card.
