This 2023 Pokémon TCG Nidoking Illustration Rare (#174/165) comes from the special Pokemon Mew EN-151 (Scarlet & Violet – 151 series) set that honors the original 151 Kanto Pokémon. The full-art holofoil card, illustrated by Misaki Hashimoto, shows Nidoking standing on a forest rock with lush green foliage and a swirling gold light in the background – a bold, collectible design. In play it’s a powerhouse: Nidoking has 170 HP and a 190-damage Venomous Impact attack (which also poisons the opponent), and its Enthusiastic King Ability can make its attacks cost zero Energy when paired with Nidoqueen. Collectors will appreciate the nostalgia and high-quality artwork of this Nidoking trading card, as well as its rare alternate-art status in the exclusive “151” set.
