CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Jynx walks with swaying hips, as though following music that others cannot hear. Its rhythm sometimes makes onlookers want to dance too. Its cries resemble human words closely enough for researchers to try to understand their meaning; musicians even compose songs for it. In some parts of Galar, its voice attracts admirers. Its movements and sounds turn each encounter into a strange performance.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Sword reports that Jynx was once feared and revered in part of Galar under the nickname “Queen of Ice”. Pokémon Shield describes another relationship with humans: some individuals with crystalline voices attract fans there.
