Ninetales, Evolutions #15

Ninetales is Pokédex #038, generation 1 (Kanto). Ninetales is a Stage 1 Fire Pokémon with 100 HP. The card lists level 32. The card says it evolves from Vulpix. In this catalog that name is Vulpix (#037).

Ninetales sits at 15/108 in Evolutions, position 15 of 113. Before it is 14 Vulpix, and after it is 16 Ninetales BREAK. The set belongs to the XY series. It was released on November 2, 2016. The printed size is 108. This checklist is longer, at 113 cards. The listed rarity is Rare Holo.

The attack Lure lists no damage number. The cost is Fire. Switch 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon with his or her Active Pokémon. The new Active Pokémon can't retreat during your opponent's next turn. Fire Blast is another attack lists 120 damage. The cost is Fire, Fire, Colorless. Discard a Fire Energy attached to this Pokémon. Weakness is Water ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "It has nine long tails and fur that gleams gold. It is said to live for 1,000 years."

Ninetales (#038) has 55 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 41 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Ninetales 12/102 in Base (1999). That card lists 80 HP, and this one lists 100 HP. Both list the rarity Rare Holo. 54 other cards of Ninetales list a different HP.

The illustrator line reads Ken Sugimori. I count 1,112 other cards in the catalog with that illustrator.

Evolutions set binder is where a full Evolutions set goes. This card fills one slot there. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Ninetales can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). Themed lists that include this exact card are Vulpix and Ninetales. I still need this card.
