CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Hanging from a branch by the top of its head, Seedot resembles an ordinary acorn. It uses this position to absorb moisture from the tree, then surprises Pokémon that mistake it for food by suddenly moving. Stillness is only part of its game: camouflage sets up a small interruption to the forest's tranquility.

A detail worth noticing

On Seedot xy11-9, its attack flips a coin to try to avoid a Knock Out during the opponent's next turn: on heads, if an attack would Knock it Out, it remains at 10 HP. sui illustrated this printing. Protection concerns that specific future damage; the attack states no immediate damage.
