Trivia

In the American version of the video game Pokémon Trading Card Game, this card's name is misspelled as Ninetails. However, the name "Ninetales" is shown correctly in the description of the Fire Blast attack. This 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.
