CARDEX BACKGROUND
Tentacruel hunts with eighty tentacles that extend and retract like a net. It weakens prey with toxins and uses the red orbs on its head to emit ultrasound. Those same orbs flash when it wants to warn its kind. The Pokédex describes a sea hunter whose lights are not decorative: they play a part in capture and group communication.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.Pokémon Ultra Moon describes Tentacruel's red orbs as a signaling system between its kind. Pokémon Sword warns that an intense glow announces ultrasound. Watching these orbs can therefore reveal a social alert or the start of an attack.
Quoted source text is retained in the card’s printed language so this exact printing can be identified. The CarDex background above is translated into English.
