CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Sylveon forms relationships through touch. It wraps its ribbon-like feelers around its Trainer's arm to walk alongside them, or uses them to calm a quarrel. The soothing aura it emits gives these gestures particular significance. Its gentleness is more than an appearance: it can change the atmosphere of an encounter and restore calm between others.

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

A detail worth noticing

When Sylveon spots prey, its ribbons distract it before Sylveon pounces, the description says. Wink Wink reveals the opponent's hand; the player may discard a Supporter there and apply its effect as the attack's effect. Magical Shot deals 40 damage. This printing gives Sylveon a trick followed by a direct hit.
