About this card
A magnificent Nidoking Art Rare from the 2023 Japanese Scarlet & Violet set SV2a: Pokémon Card 151. Numbered 174/165 — beyond the iconic 165-card set total as befits an Art Rare — this card presents Nidoking in the spectacular full-bleed illustration style that defines the AR rarity tier. Nidoking is one of the most imposing and iconic Pokémon from the original Kanto generation — a powerhouse Poison and Ground-type that has commanded respect since the very first Pokémon games, widely remembered as one of the most fearsome Pokémon a trainer could encounter in the wild. Its dramatic, regal design lends itself perfectly to the full-art canvas, making this one of the most striking depictions of Nidoking in the entire TCG. The 151 set remains one of the most beloved modern Japanese releases, dedicated entirely to the original Kanto Pokémon and greeted with enormous enthusiasm from collectors worldwide upon its 2023 release. An essential piece for Kanto fans and serious SV-era collectors alike.
