2022 Pokemon Company VSTAR Universe AR Poochyena #208/172

This Japanese-language Art Rare (AR) card from VSTAR Universe (s12a, ©2022) features Poochyena — the Bite Pokémon — bounding through a lush autumn forest floor strewn with falling orange and yellow leaves. Illustrated by Kouki Saitou, the full-art composition gives Poochyena an energetic, wild presence. The card's flavor text (translated from Japanese) reads: "Once it has set its sights on prey, this ferocious Pokémon will never give up the chase. It has an incredibly tenacious nature." Poochyena is a Colorless-type Basic Pokémon with two attacks — Gnaw (10 damage) and Poke Around (30 damage, also deals 10 to itself) — and a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. A standout AR pull from one of the most popular Japanese Sword & Shield expansion sets.
