CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Scolipede corners opponents with its speed, then seizes them with its neck claws before striking with poisonous spikes. The Pokédex describes it as extremely aggressive and attached to its territory. It particularly confronts Centiskorch; in these battles, the loser may become the winner's meal. Hunting and defense follow the same logic: immobilize a target, then exploit its venom.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Shield describes territorial rivalry between Scolipede and Centiskorch, sometimes fatal to the loser. Pokémon Sword details prey being seized with neck claws before the sting. The same tool therefore serves against prey and in territorial defense.
