Nidoking Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
Rising Rivals Nidoking stands out as a bruiser from the Platinum era, pairing the reactive Poké-Body Territoriality with the huge-risk, huge-reward Giga Horn to give collectors a card that feels as aggressive as Nidoking itself.
Artist
This card was illustrated by Masakazu Fukuda, an artist whose dynamic action poses helped define the bold, battle-ready look of many late-2000s Pokémon TCG cards.
In-Game
Nidoking is one of the original Generation I Pokémon, and its long-standing identity as a Poison/Ground powerhouse makes a heavy-hitting Stage 2 card like this especially satisfying for collectors who love Kanto classics.
Cultural Impact
Because Nidoking is a Gen I favorite with a tough, kaiju-like silhouette, cards like this Rising Rivals print tap into the same nostalgic pull that keeps Kanto evolutions central to many vintage-era collections.
Set Lore
This Nidoking comes from Platinum—Rising Rivals, a set released in North America on May 20, 2009, giving it a firm place in the competitive and stylistic peak of the Platinum-era TCG.
