CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Froslass roams snowy peaks and immobilizes prey with an icy breath. It can carry them to its den, where it arranges them carefully. The Pokédex reports a legendary origin: it is said to have been born from the regrets of a woman who perished in the mountains. On stormy nights, other accounts warn that it may knock on the doors of homes. These stories extend the very real threat of its cold into tales of disappearance.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Shield puts Froslass's breath at minus fifty degrees. Pokémon Ultra Moon reports the belief that it knocks on doors during a snowstorm. The first entry describes its attack; the second belongs to a traditional warning.
