CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Delibird spends much of its day carrying food. Its journeys feed the young waiting near cliffs, but its generosity may also benefit lost people. The Pokédex preserves memories of rescues made possible by its provisions. Behind its delivery-bird appearance thus emerges a life devoted to seeking, carrying and sharing.

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

A detail worth noticing

Present may let this Delibird search its deck for any card and add it to its hand, but only if the coin lands heads. The deck is shuffled after searching. Its other attack, Ice Ball, deals 20 damage without that conditional search.
