# Houndoom (黑鲁加) (Chinese) #0801 — Gem Pack Vol.5 (宝石包 VOL.5)

## Summary

Houndoom landed in mainland China in April 2026 as part of Gem Pack Vol.5, and this Simplified Chinese version sits at the single gem circle tier, the bottom rung of that line. The art catches the Dark and Fire hound with curved horns lit by ember-orange against smoky, cratered rock. Fans prize Houndoom for its fierce look, so even a lowly gem circle copy is an easy one to enjoy. The modelled guide sits at $6.79; no PSA population is on file.
