CARDEX BACKGROUND
The Pokémon’s story
Snivy works with light to become more agile. By exposing its tail to the sun, it photosynthesizes, and good sunlight makes its movements faster. Its calm should not be confused with slowness. Beneath this composed attitude, precise mobility develops, supported by a daily relationship between its plantlike tail and solar energy.
Background on the species in the video games; its forms and card versions may have appeared later.A detail worth noticing
Snivy does not mainly rely on its hands to handle its surroundings. Pokémon Black 2 says it uses its vines with greater skill. This preference gives another meaning to its small limbs and the way it acts.
