CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Marowak grew tougher after a youth marked by loss. It now wields its bone as a weapon and can throw it to hit a distant target. Some entries connect its attacks on Mandibuzz with memories of its mother without claiming to know all its intentions. It also strikes its bone to communicate with its kind through numerous melodies. This Pokémon thus connects combat, memory and language with an object it never leaves behind.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Ultra Moon credits Marowak with around fifty melodies played with its bone to communicate. Pokémon Ultra Sun suggests it attacks Mandibuzz to avenge its mother. The same bone thus carries a collective language and a personal story reported cautiously.
