CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Falinks consists of six members, but the Pokédex considers it a single Pokémon. One leader directs five followers who obey its orders. Together, they change formation and rely on coordination in battle. Their strength therefore comes from the group's organization rather than an isolated member. When it moves, several bodies act as one unit, with a precise hierarchy and positions that can change with the situation.

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

A detail worth noticing

The number of Falinks members does not match the number of Pokémon counted by the Pokédex: six individuals form one entity. Pokémon Sword distinguishes one leader and five followers; Pokémon Shield says they can alter their formation in battle.
