Description
Released in 1999 as part of the Pokémon Jungle expansion, Nidoran ♀ (Card 57) remains a recognizable staple for collectors of the original Pokémon Trading Card Game. Illustrated by Ken Sugimori, this Grass-type Basic card offers 60 HP and serves as a versatile piece for deck construction and set completion. The card features two distinct attacks: Grass Fury Swipes, which deals variable damage based on coin flips, and Call for Family, allowing players to search their deck for a related Nidoran partner. These mechanics reflect the strategic depth and accessibility that defined early TCG gameplay. Collectors often seek this card to complete the Jungle base set or to build nostalgic decks that mirror the original anime experience. As a common rarity, it provides an accessible entry point for new hobbyists while holding sentimental value for veterans who grew up with the franchise. Whether you are assembling a comprehensive collection or focusing on specific Pokémon types, this card represents a significant moment in trading card evolution.
