CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Bombirdier makes a kind of apron from its chest feathers and shed feathers. It uses this to gather food and bring it back to the nest. The same fold can hold other objects it enjoys dropping from great heights, especially those that make loud noises when they land. The Pokédex thus brings a useful task and noisy play together in the same gesture: carrying something beneath itself in flight.

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

A detail worth noticing

Bombirdier's apron is not an external object: Pokémon Scarlet describes it as made from chest feathers and fallen feathers. Pokémon Violet notes that it carries food this way but also enjoys dropping noisy objects.
