Price History
Description
The Ninetales Illustration Rare card from the 2023 Pokémon Obsidian Flames set (SV3) stands as a premium collectible for TCG enthusiasts. Identified by card number 199/197, this release features the iconic Fire-type Pokémon in its Stage 1 form, evolving from Vulpix. The card is distinguished by its holo finish and artwork by SIE NANAHARA, making it a visually striking addition to any collection. Ninetales is recognized in the Pokédex as number 38 and is known for its intelligence and vengeful nature, traits that are subtly woven into the card's flavor text regarding its many tails. In the Pokémon Trading Card Game, this card offers unique strategic depth. With 120 HP, Ninetales can utilize the "Fire Will-O-Wisp" attack for 20 damage. However, its signature "Nine-Tailed Dance" attack allows players to place nine damage counters on an opponent's Pokémon, albeit with the restriction that Ninetales cannot attack during the following turn. This high-risk, high-reward mechanic makes it a memorable piece for collectors who appreciate both aesthetic rarity and gameplay complexity. The Regulation Mark G further anchors this card in the modern era of the TCG, ensuring it meets current tournament standards. For collectors, the Ninetales Illustration Rare represents a convergence of artistic appreciation and nostalgic value. The Obsidian Flames set, released in 2023, has been well-received for its diverse roster of Pokémon and high-quality finishes. This card is often targeted by those looking to complete specialized subsets or acquire standout pieces that showcase the artist's style. Whether you are building a themed collection around Fire-types or seeking a centerpiece for your display, this card offers a distinct identity within the broader Pokémon universe. The combination of its unique attack pattern and premium treatment makes it a desirable item for enthusiasts who value both the lore and the mechanical intricacies of the TCG.
