About Ninetales
Very smart and very vengeful. Grabbing one of its many tails could result in a 1,000-year curse.

The artwork on this card depicts Ninetales elegantly sitting against a starry, cosmic backdrop, its nine flowing tails fanning out in soft, glowing curves, exuding an aura of mystique and ancient power under the night sky.
Playability Overview
Ninetales offers useful disruption with Lure and strong damage potential through Fire Blast, but its reliance on discarding energy and moderate HP limits its long-term sustainability in competitive play.
