CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Snover lives on snowy peaks and plants its feet in the snow to absorb cold and moisture. Yet it is curious about humans: a footprint may attract several individuals. In winter, it sometimes descends towards the foot of the mountains, then climbs back in spring. At that season, Berries appear around its belly. Galarian Darumaka love them. Its annual journey thus follows changes in snow, temperature and food.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon White describes Snover attracted by human footprints in the mountains. Pokémon Shield states that the Berries on their bellies are sought by Galarian Darumaka. The curiosity of one and appetite of the other may therefore draw them to the same places.
