Collector Insights
Nidoking is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 100 HP. It features the ability Crystal Type, which allows it to temporarily change its type to Grass, Lightning, or Fire when a corresponding basic Energy card is attached from the player’s hand. The card includes two attacks: Poison Horn, which costs two Grass and one Colorless Energy to deal 20 damage and poison the defending Pokémon, and Rolling Thunder, requiring two Lightning and two Fighting Energy to deal 50 damage while flipping a coin to determine if it affects the opponent’s Benched Pokémon or the player’s own. Nidoking’s retreat cost consists of three Colorless Energy, and it has a Grass weakness that doubles its damage. The card was released in the Aquapolis set as part of the E-Card series on January 15, 2003. Artist Hironobu Yoshida designed the illustration. Its rarity is listed as Rare Secret. The card’s design emphasizes its role as a versatile attacker with dynamic energy interactions.
