CARDEX BACKGROUND
The Pokémon’s story
Near rivers, Phanpy digs a shelter in the ground and marks the surrounding area with its trunk. That same nose then becomes a grooming tool when it sprays itself with water. With other Phanpy, bathing becomes an exchange of splashes, followed by drying off beside the water. Its life thus unfolds through simple actions connected to the riverbank and the group.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A detail worth noticing
Phanpy sometimes bumps someone with its trunk when trying to show affection: the description explains that it does not understand its own strength. Crushing Step gives a more modest measure on this card: 10 damage is assured, with another 10 only if the coin lands heads.
