CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Hanging from a branch by the top of its head, Seedot resembles an ordinary acorn. It uses this position to absorb moisture from the tree, then surprises Pokémon that mistake it for food by suddenly moving. Stillness is only part of its game: camouflage sets up a small interruption to the forest's tranquility.

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

A detail worth noticing

Seedot actively maintains its appearance. Pokémon Alpha Sapphire notes that it polishes its body with leaves once a day. The shine of its silhouette therefore does not come solely from absorbed water: it also benefits from regular care.
