CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

For Charmander, emotions have their own light. The flame at the tip of its tail changes with its feelings: it flickers when it is enjoying itself and burns more fiercely when it is angry. Watching this little fire is a way of reading its mood. This warm little figure has a language that its face alone does not always express.

A detail worth noticing

Charmander 26/197 from Obsidian Flames deals 30 damage with its attack for only one Fire Energy, but also does 10 damage to itself. The printed effect depends on no flip: recoil accompanies every use. The illustration is credited to DOM.
