CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Psyduck’s vacant gaze conceals a persistent headache. When the pain becomes too strong, psychic power may burst out without its choosing to release it. Its apparent tranquillity is deceptive: this Pokémon endures a strain that others cannot see. Stress worsens its condition further, giving its sudden displays of power a far less triumphant meaning.

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

A detail worth noticing

Psyduck smp-SM199, illustrated by Framestore, strikes for 30 damage with Scratch. Psyduck det1-7, also credited to Framestore, deals 10 damage but Confuses the attacker. These printings share an artist rather than the hit's consequence: promo SM199 does not specify that Confusion.
