This holographic Nidoking is a rare Stage 2 Grass-type trading card from the original 1999 Pokémon TCG Base Set. It features Ken Sugimori’s iconic artwork of Nidoking (the “Drill Pokémon”) against a shimmering holofoil backdrop of starry patterns. With 90 HP and signature attacks like Thrash and Toxic, it reflects Nidoking’s powerful tail-based offense and poison theme in battle. Collectors prize this vintage holo Nidoking for its nostalgic value and classic design—it was among the first Nidoking cards printed in the English Pokémon TCG, making it a standout piece from the Base Set era.
