CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Necrozma depends on light to live. After a long period underground, impurities accumulated in its body and blackened it. If it cannot find enough light, it weakens until it loses mobility. Its search for energy makes it violent and leads it to fire destructive beams. Some entries suppose it comes from another world without establishing this. The Pokédex thus contrasts a disputed origin with a need for light whose behavioral effects are visible.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Ultra Moon describes Necrozma blackened and immobilized when light is lacking. Pokémon Sun proposes an origin in another world without confirming it. Energy dependence is presented as a fact of its condition; provenance remains a supposition.
