The Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket has launched a frosty new challenge for collectors and battlers alike. Starting May 15, players can participate in a special drop event where the centerpiece is a gorgeous full art Alolan Ninetales card — available for a limited time only.
🧊 A Legendary Fox with a Regional Twist
Originally a classic Kanto-region Fire-type, Ninetales has long been a beloved part of the Pokémon franchise. With its mystical aura and spiritual lore, Ninetales evolved from Vulpix to become a symbol of elegance and mystery.
That mystique only deepened when Game Freak introduced Alolan forms in Pokémon Sun and Moon, transforming Ninetales into an Ice/Fairy-type with ethereal bluish fur. Now, that majestic Alolan variant is taking center stage in Pokémon TCG Pocket’s latest drop event.
