CARDEX BACKGROUND

The Pokémon’s story

Spheal moves faster by rolling than walking thanks to its round body wrapped in a layer of fat. During the cold season, entire groups cross ice and sea this way. When eating together, they clap their flippers and make the meal very noisy. From the waves, Spheal also spots prey and alerts the group's Walrein. The Pokédex describes a collective life in which movement, food and warning signals are shared.

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

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon Omega Ruby describes Spheal all clapping together at mealtime. Pokémon Shield gives them a lookout role, alerting Walrein to prey. Their joyful sounds and their warnings thus serve two very different moments in group life.
