CARDEX BACKGROUND
The Pokémon’s story
Joltik finds its energy on Pokémon much larger than itself. It clings to their bodies to absorb static electricity that it cannot produce alone, then stores it. Its small size accompanies a way of life based on this closeness. Behind the image of the tiny passenger lies a constant search for the resource that allows it to function.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A detail worth noticing
Joltik sm11-61's attack flips a coin to try to Paralyze the opponent's Active Pokémon. No damage is printed for this attack: even on heads, the intended effect is the Special Condition. Midori Harada illustrated the card. Tails therefore leaves the attack with neither Paralysis nor numerical damage.
