CARDEX BACKGROUND

About the species

Darumaka draws energy from the flame burning inside its body. When the flame is strong, it becomes excited and runs around; when it weakens, Darumaka falls asleep and retracts its limbs. It sleeps so steadily that a push will not make it topple. This trait has earned it a place on good-luck charms. In the past, people even used the still-warm waste it left behind to keep warm. Its heat thus accompanies both its activity and the uses people have found for it.

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

Pokémon White says people once placed Darumaka's warm droppings under their clothes. Pokémon Shield notes that it became a good-luck motif because it stays upright even while asleep. Two very different details arise from its heat and posture.
