CARDEX BACKGROUND
The Pokémon’s story
Bounsweet's fruity scent attracts bird Pokémon that want to eat it. When threatened, it spins the sepals on top of its head to resist, with little success according to the Pokédex. It also secretes sweet sweat during an attack. Far from protecting it, this smell attracts even more enemies. Its defenses and scents thus create a paradox: the more it reacts to danger, the more it risks being noticed.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A detail worth noticing
Pokémon Ultra Moon specifies that Bounsweet's spinning sepals often fail against a bird Pokémon. Pokémon Shield describes a second counterproductive reaction: the sweet sweat released during an attack attracts other opponents instead of repelling them.
