About this Pokemon: Ninetales Can live a thousand years if not more. Each of it's tails are said to have a Psychic Power. Ninetales are Very Smart, but can have quite a temper and can act irrationally when mad. often casting Curses on those who make them mad. one of the most Famed ways to Make a Ninetales mad at you it to Pull one of it's tails. but that is just a really, really BAD idea.
What's Good about this Pokemon: They have a LOT of Egg moves. They have two Sp.attack boosting Moves. (Calm mind and Nasty plot.) They have a workable attack stat, so a Physical Ninetales IS possible. Especially with Howl as one of it's egg moves.
What bad about this Pokemon: They don't really have the best Defense stat. Making them vulnerable to Rock and Ground type attacks, as Most are Physical. As a stone Evolution, (fire stone) It can't learn many of the Moves that it can as a Vulpix.
What I think of this Pokemon: I Love My Ninetales! They are quite amazing. Not only do they have a Beautiful look, But they have the Strength to take out an entire team. Energy ball is a Must in B/W as it's Strong against all of Ninetales' Weaknesses. I don't get why they couldn't learn it in the Previous games, Because they really need it. Because a Grass type hidden power Doesn't cut it in most situations. And unless you use up one of your Slots for Sunny day, Solar beam is kinda out of the question. Although Ninetales' Hidden Ability in Black and White, Drought, is perfect for making a sunny day team, as it Brings instant and everlasting sun, without needing to use a Groudon.
