CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Chespin moves with wooden protection covering its head and back. The Pokédex emphasizes the strength of this casing, capable of withstanding considerable impacts. Its small silhouette should not obscure that defense. What resembles a plant shell forms real armor, giving the young Pokémon toughness its size might not suggest.

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

A detail worth noticing

Chespin xy1-12's Pin Missile flips four coins for just one Grass Energy. Each heads adds 10 damage, so the total ranges from zero to 40 in steps of 10. 5ban Graphics receives the credit for this card. No favorable result is guaranteed despite the four attempts.
