CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Rowlet divides its activities between light and darkness. During the day, photosynthesis lets it accumulate energy; at night, it silently travels through the sky in search of prey. Its daytime calm prepares another life. The delicate wings carrying it without noise accompany a rhythm in which apparent rest and vigilance succeed one another rather than conflict.

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

A detail worth noticing

Rowlet swsh4.5-6 has only one listed attack, Wind Shard. It chooses one opposing Benched Pokémon and deals 60 damage to it, excluding Weakness and Resistance for that Benched target. HYOGONOSUKE illustrated this printing, where the number appears in the effect rather than as printed damage against the Active Spot.
