CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Slurpuff finds its bearings through the smells drifting around it. Its nose distinguishes much subtler nuances of scent than humans can perceive, making it useful to pastry chefs. The Pokédex also credits it with sensing changes in a person's physical or mental condition, an ability presented as promising for medicine in its universe. Beneath its very light fur thus hides an observer of odors.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Y states that Slurpuff's sense of smell far surpasses a human's and helps it navigate. Pokémon Sword mentions a possible medical application but frames it conditionally. Its nose describes an ability; using it for diagnosis remains a prospect within the Pokédex.
