Huntail

Huntail's design origins

Huntail appears to be based on the gulper eel, viperfish, onejaw or moray eel, and also resembles the oarfish because of its orange crest and fins. Its tail bears a resemblance to Gorebyss's head, serving as a lure to catch prey.

Huntail's cards across multiple eras

Huntail's first card came in the EX era's Hidden Legends, illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno, followed by Legend Maker's Rare from Midori Harada. Diamond and Pearl's Great Encounters used a Ken Sugimori illustration, while the XY era's Primal Clash brought a Masakazu Fukuda print. Later sets added a Sun and Moon era Uncommon by Shigenori Negishi, a Sword and Shield era Rare by otumami in Fusion Strike, and an Uncommon by Scav in Destined Rivals.
