CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Spiritomb holds a special place in Pokédex legends: it is said to have been born from the gathering of 108 spirits. One story tells of a traveller sealing it inside a fissure in an Odd Keystone with a spell, as punishment for its behaviour. Other entries place this imprisonment several centuries in the past. These stories do not provide a verified account of its birth; they explain why its silhouette always seems bound to that stone and the idea of an ancient wrongdoing.

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

A detail worth noticing

The number 108 recurs in descriptions of Spiritomb: Pokémon Sword speaks of that many souls merging, some of which are said to be malevolent. The entry retains its uncertainty. It passes on a tradition about Spiritomb’s origin without allowing each spirit to be distinguished on a card or during an encounter.
