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

Reprisal has no fixed damage number on this Charmander: every damage counter already on it adds 20 damage to the attack. Its own injury becomes the calculation's factor. The card's other attack, Scratch, remains at 10 damage without that condition.
