Numbered 192\/182, it sits well past the base set checklist of 182 cards — a position that signals lower pull rates and a genuinely limited supply of pristine raw copies. The Illustration Rare treatment delivers full-bleed, edge-to-edge artwork that places Blaziken in a stunning, immersive action scene, rendered with the dynamic linework that has made this card's illustrator a celebrated name among collectors who follow the art side of the hobby.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlaziken carries a collector premium that few Stage 2 Pokémon can match. As the fully evolved form of Torchic — the beloved Generation 3 Fire starter from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire — it commands multi-generational appeal that spans from longtime Hoenn fans to newer collectors discovering the franchise. Blaziken's status as one of the most iconic and visually striking starter evolutions in the entire series ensures that premium prints of this Pokémon consistently perform well on the secondary market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the competitive side, Inferno Kick Flurry offers a compelling spread damage option — 120 damage to the active and 120 to a Benched Pokémon for three energy is a meaningful threat in the right build, giving this card relevance beyond the binder for players willing to build around a Stage 2 Fire attacker in the Regulation Mark I format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Card?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSecret Rare Scarcity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Numbered 192\/182, this Blaziken sits deep past the base set checklist — a Secret Rare designation that means lower pull rates and a harder-to-find supply of flawless raw copies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustration Rare Prestige:\u003c\/strong\u003e The full-bleed, edge-to-edge IR artwork is one of the most collector-celebrated rarity tiers in the modern Scarlet \u0026amp; Violet era, prized for its narrative presentation and premium aesthetic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHoenn Nostalgia Premium:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blaziken is one of the most beloved starter evolutions in Pokémon history — Generation 3 fans and Hoenn completionists drive consistent, long-term demand for premium prints of this Pokémon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompetitive Utility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Inferno Kick Flurry's 120 spread damage to both the Active and a Benched Pokémon makes this a legitimate threat in Stage 2 Fire builds within the Regulation Mark I format.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrading Upside:\u003c\/strong\u003e Modern Full Art holofoil cards are highly condition-sensitive — well-preserved copies with clean surfaces, sharp corners, and tight centering are genuinely scarce and carry strong PSA and CGC submission potential.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cem\u003eAll cards are shipped securely in a sleeve and toploader.\u003c\/em\u003e","brand":"The Rip Stop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51502979514601,"sku":null,"price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0814\/9165\/6937\/files\/IMG_0345.jpg?v=1783646555","url":"https:\/\/theripstop.com\/products\/blaziken-full-art-holofoil-dri-192-182","provider":"The Rip Stop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
