Ninetales Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Base Set Ninetales is one of the original holo rares from the first English Pokémon TCG expansion, giving this card a direct link to the hobby’s 1999 boom and the earliest days of Wizards of the Coast collecting.
Artist
This card is illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the artist who finalized Ninetales’ original game design, so the artwork feels especially close to the Pokémon’s first official look.
In-Game
Ninetales was unavailable in Pokémon Red without trading, which gave it an early mystique and made the Base Set holo feel like a special way to own one of Kanto’s more elusive Fire-types.
Card History
Ninetales starred in a memorable anime episode where it had waited over 200 years for its master, a haunting story that deepened the card’s aura of loyalty, illusion, and old folklore.
Card History
This specific Base Set card is famous for two collector quirks: its name was misspelled as “Ninetails” in the English Game Boy Pokémon TCG, and a small number of copies were printed with Fire Blast’s damage missing.
