CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Psyduck’s vacant gaze conceals a persistent headache. When the pain becomes too strong, psychic power may burst out without its choosing to release it. Its apparent tranquillity is deceptive: this Pokémon endures a strain that others cannot see. Stress worsens its condition further, giving its sudden displays of power a far less triumphant meaning.

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

A detail worth noticing

On German Psyduck base3-53, Headache prevents the opponent from playing Trainer cards during their next turn without stating damage. Fury Swipes then flips three coins and counts 10 damage per heads. Kagemaru Himeno illustrated this card: blocking an action and attempting up to 30 damage are separate choices.
