Where it came from
The Alolan Ninetales card, numbered 28/147, was released in the Burning Shadows expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2017. This card features the Alolan regional variant of Ninetales, which debuted in the video games Pokémon Sun and Moon. The design reflects the creature's shift to an Ice and Fairy type, trading the traditional fire aesthetic for a crisp, crystalline appearance inspired by the snowy peaks of Mount Lanakila.
The artwork was illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, a veteran artist in the Pokémon franchise whose work has defined the visual language of the trading card game since its inception. Arita utilized a serene, flowing composition to emphasize the elegance of the Alolan form, using cool blue tones and shimmering highlights to evoke a sense of frozen grace. Upon release, the card was well-received by collectors who appreciated Arita's ability to capture the ethereal nature of this specific variant.
