CARDEX BACKGROUND

About the species

Tyranitar travels through mountains looking for opponents strong enough to withstand it. Its strength can destroy rock and alter the places it passes through; it may even bring down a mountain to build its nest. The Pokédex notes that it may ignore a rival it considers too weak. Its journey is therefore a search for a challenge as much as a movement from place to place: the landscape bears the traces of its decisions and battles.

This account describes the species in the video games. It does not describe its Trainer’s history or that of this copy, and does not identify the depicted form or sex.

A detail worth noticing

After an angry Tyranitar passes through, geographical maps sometimes have to be redrawn: mountains have disappeared and rivers have been buried. Pokémon Black takes the description beyond a simple battle. The event described in the Pokédex affects the entire terrain, with lasting consequences for those navigating it.
