CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Weepinbell spends part of the night hanging from a branch by its hook. By day, it catches moving things with leaf-shaped limbs, immobilizing powder and acidic liquid. Restless sleep can make it fall from its perch. The Pokédex thus combines the image of a plant ready to swallow prey with that of a being whose rest remains precarious. Its weapons mainly serve it when it is fully awake.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Omega Ruby says Weepinbell can fall from the branch where it sleeps hanging. Pokémon X describes its sharp leaves and corrosive fluid. This dangerous predator therefore experiences a very ordinary moment of vulnerability during sleep.
