CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Veluza sheds pieces of flesh it does not need. This sharpens its mind and strengthens its psychic powers; it also increases agility before rushing prey. Its regenerative ability compensates for the lost material. The Pokédex thus describes a hunting method in which Veluza deliberately alters its own body before attacking. What it discards does not necessarily represent lasting injury because its flesh can regrow.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Scarlet notes that flesh discarded by Veluza has a mild, appreciated flavor. Pokémon Violet explains why it can lose flesh before hunting: it regenerates tissue efficiently and becomes faster when lighter.
