CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Breloom approaches an opponent with precise footwork, then strikes with arms that can stretch. Before landing its blows, it can scatter toxic spores that daze its target. The seeds near its tail contain them too and must not be eaten. The Pokédex compares its technique to that of an experienced boxer. Its style therefore combines a fighter's mobility with a mushroom's chemical defenses.

Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Alpha Sapphire warns that Breloom's seeds cause severe pain if swallowed. Pokémon Omega Ruby, by contrast, praises the precision of its punches. Its spores serve in battle, but the seeds retain their danger even outside a confrontation.
