Arcanine EX 224/198

This is Arcanine ex, card number 224/198 from the Scarlet and Violet Base Set. Because the first number (224) is higher than the set total (198), this card sits in the secret rare range, marking it as one of the special cards printed beyond the main numbering.

Pokemon ex cards are a Scarlet and Violet era mechanic, offering higher hit points and strong attacks while giving up extra prizes when knocked out. Arcanine has long been a fan favourite, and its higher numbering in this set points to a special full art or alternate treatment rather than the standard ex layout.

Collectors look for this Arcanine ex because it combines a classic, well loved Pokemon with the premium presentation found at the top of the set list. It suits both players who enjoy running ex cards and collectors chasing the secret rare entries from the Scarlet and Violet Base Set.
