CARDEX BACKGROUND
Mankey lives in trees in colonies where anger spreads quickly. An annoyance can make it tremble and breathe faster before it attacks anything that moves. Even its neighbours’ flight does not calm it: loneliness becomes a new source of anger. Yet the Pokédex relates that it accumulates little stress, because its outbursts pass as quickly as they arrive. This explosive temperament shapes the life of its entire group.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.Pokémon Moon goes so far as to relate that a Mankey may dream of its frustrations, wake up and become angry at having been disturbed. Pokémon Ultra Sun nevertheless credits it with a long life: its annoyances are said not to last long enough to build up into stress.
Quoted source text is retained in the card’s printed language so this exact printing can be identified. The CarDex background above is translated into English.
