CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Hydreigon patrols the sky with its six wings and throws itself at anything that moves, readily mistaking a living being for an enemy. The heads at the ends of its arms have no brains, but participate in its attacks by taking turns biting. Old stories even attribute the destruction of entire villages to it. The Pokédex thus presents a creature whose power and aggression have fed legends, while its body multiplies the directions from which it can attack.

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

A detail worth noticing

The two heads on Hydreigon’s arms have no brains, explains Pokémon White. Pokémon Shield nevertheless describes their alternating bites during a fight. Their offensive role therefore does not imply three independent minds, despite the Pokémon’s appearance.
