CARDEX BACKGROUND
The Pokémon’s story
Greninja does more than project water. It compresses it into shuriken, then throws them at such speed that their rotation can cut into metal. The Pokédex thus turns a familiar element into a precise weapon. Each projectile comes from a movement combining pressure, shape and motion. The result resembles a tool shaped to strike before an opponent has understood where the jet is coming from.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A detail worth noticing
Pokémon Y emphasises Greninja’s mobility: it slips away like a ninja, confuses enemies with its speed, then hits them with Water Shuriken. The remarkable point is this combination of evasion and attack. Its opponent must track its movements before even being able to dodge the projectile.
