Nidoking Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This holo Nidoking is one of the headlining Kanto evolutions in EX FireRed & LeafGreen, and its Poké-Body "Power Gene" is especially flavorful because it powers up nearly the entire Nidoran-to-Nido royalty family instead of just itself.
Set Lore
Nidoking #8 sits in a set built specifically around Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, making it feel like a cardboard callback to the Game Boy Advance return to Kanto in the EX era.
In-Game
That Kanto connection runs deep, because EX FireRed & LeafGreen was explicitly based on the FireRed and LeafGreen games, where Nidoking remained one of the most iconic fully evolved Poison-types from the original Pokédex.
Artist
The card was illustrated by Hisao Nakamura, whose art here gives Nidoking a heavy, charging presence that matches the card’s bruising attacks like Earth Poison and Bound Crush.
Cultural Impact
For longtime collectors, Nidoking carries extra nostalgia because it represents Pokédex #34 from the original Generation I lineup, so pulling this holo feels like hitting a classic Kanto powerhouse rather than just another Stage 2.
