CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Sneasel moves at night and climbs trees by driving its claws into the bark. It looks for unattended nests from which to steal eggs. Several individuals may even work together: while one creates a distraction, the others approach their prize. This cooperation does not prevent arguments over sharing the meal. The Pokédex describes an agile thief whose claws serve as tools for climbing, defending itself and opening eggs.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Ultra Moon relates that Sneasel hunts Sandshrew at night, but may break its claws on their skin. Despite its sharp tools and tricks, its prey is therefore not always defenceless. This detail qualifies its reputation as a skilful predator.
