Ninetales [1999-2000] Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Base Set Ninetales is one of the original English holo rares from the very first Pokémon TCG set released in the United States, which gives this card instant 'founding era' status for vintage collectors.
Artist
This card is illustrated by Ken Sugimori, the franchise’s original art director and one of the key creators who defined how first-generation Pokémon looked across the games and early cards.
In-Game
Ninetales carried real mystique in the Game Boy era because in Pokémon Red and Blue it was version-exclusive to Blue, so many players could only get one through trading.
Card History
Ninetales was memorable enough in the anime to star in its own focused story, 'Just Waiting on a Friend,' an episode that explicitly draws on the fox-spirit mythology behind the Pokémon.
Cultural Impact
The card’s flavor text about a thousand-year curse reflects Ninetales’s long-running inspiration from the Japanese kitsune, a mythical fox often associated with age, intelligence, and supernatural power.
