Trivia

• In the American version of the video game Pokémon Trading Card Game, the two available Ninetales cards (this and the one exclusive to Game Boy) have their name misspelled as Ninetails, although the name Ninetales is shown correctly in the description of this card's Fire Blast attack. The misspelling was fixed in the European versions.
• A small number of these cards lack Fire Blast's base damage.

Origin

Fire Blast is a move in the Pokémon games that Ninetales can learn. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, whereas the Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
