Nidoking [Shadowless] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Base Set Nidoking stands out as one of the earliest holo Stage 2 heavy-hitters, and its Toxic attack used a boosted Poison effect that made the Defending Pokémon take 20 damage between turns instead of the usual 10.
Artist
This card is illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the original Pokémon character designer, which gives Shadowless Nidoking the same classic early-era visual DNA that defined Gen I itself.
Set Lore
What makes this copy especially collectible is the Shadowless printing: Bulbapedia notes that this transitional Base Set run lacks the drop shadow around the artwork box and kept the earlier thinner text styling before Unlimited changed the layout.
Set Lore
Nidoking belongs to the original English Base Set released on January 9, 1999, the landmark expansion that introduced the first main wave of Generation I Pokémon cards to English-speaking collectors.
In-Game
For Game Boy fans, Nidoking carries real Gen I nostalgia because the Nidoran line was famously accessible early in Pokémon Red and Blue, helping make Nidoking one of the era's most memorable power picks.
