5 facts about this card
Nidoking #31 is part of Legendary Collection, the 2002 English-only reprint set that pulled classics from Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, and Team Rocket while also introducing the famous reverse holofoil "fireworks" pattern collectors still chase today.
This Legendary Collection Nidoking is a reprint of the original Base Set Nidoking, preserving one of the iconic early Ken Sugimori monster portraits from the first wave of Pokémon TCG history.
Having Ken Sugimori credited on this card gives it extra historical weight, because Sugimori is the defining visual artist of early Pokémon and is also credited for Nidoking in Legendary Collection’s artist listings.
The card’s Toxic attack is a perfect nod to the games, where Toxic was already the classic TM06 status move in Generation I and fit Nidoking’s Poison-type identity from the very beginning.
Nidoking also carried real anime presence in the original era, most notably as one of Gary Oak’s battle Pokémon during his Gym battle against Giovanni, which helps this card feel tied to Kanto’s fiercest rival energy.
