#31 Ninetales - Fusion Strike (swsh8)
Ninetales is a Fire-type Pokémon with 120 HP, featured in the Sword & Shield series within the Fusion Strike set, released on November 12, 2021. Its card number is 31, marked as Uncommon rarity, and illustrated by artist Tika Matsuno. The Pokémon possesses an ability called Byway of the Nine-Tailed Fox, which reduces the Retreat Cost of all your Fire Energy-attached Pokémon by one Colorless Energy. Ninetales can use the attack Flame Tail, requiring one Fire and one Colorless Energy to deal 60 damage. It has no resistances but is weak to Water-type attacks, taking double damage from them. The card’s flavor text describes Ninetales as intelligent and vengeful, with a warning that grasping its tail might incur a severe curse. Its retreat cost is two Colorless Energy, aligning with its strategic role in gameplay.
