CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Golbat waits for moonless nights to approach sleeping prey discreetly. Its four hollow fangs let it drink blood, but their thinness makes them fragile. An overly large meal may even weigh it down so much that it cannot fly. The Pokédex also mentions individuals sharing food with hungry companions. Behind this unsettling hunt lie physical limits and, sometimes, a form of mutual help.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Ultra Moon states that a Golbat can absorb up to 300 ml of blood at once, then become too heavy to fly. Pokémon Sun explains that its fangs are hollow and fragile. The tool that helps it feed can therefore also make hunting risky.
