# Combusken (Japanese) #004 — Torchic Constructed Starter Deck

## Summary

Combusken here is a deck-box regular: an unmarked common that came in the Torchic Constructed Starter Deck, so its appeal is the Japanese ADV era rather than any chase slot. The artwork catches the Pokémon mid-kick in a grassy field, with swirling flames at its side against a warm red-orange card. Released in Japan in January 2003, it beat the English Combusken in the EX trainer Kit (Latias), dated July 2004, by well over a year. The modelled guide sits at $1.99; no PSA population is on file.
