CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Chespin moves with wooden protection covering its head and back. The Pokédex emphasizes the strength of this casing, capable of withstanding considerable impacts. Its small silhouette should not obscure that defense. What resembles a plant shell forms real armor, giving the young Pokémon toughness its size might not suggest.

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

A detail worth noticing

On Chespin me04-087, the first attack deals 10 damage with one Grass Energy. The second deals 30 with two Grass Energy and no additional effect. Atsushi Furusawa illustrated this card: damage triples when the cost doubles, and no coin changes either number.
