It weakens its prey with sound waves intense enough to cause headaches, then entangles them with its sticky tongue.
頭痛を 起こすほどの 音波で 獲物を じゅうぶん 弱らせて ネバネバした ベロで 絡めとる。


Trivia

  • Even though Palpitoad and its evolved form are normally immune to Electric-type moves (the type to which the Lightning type corresponds to) in the games, this card has a weakness to Lightning-type attacks. It might be because Tympole has a Lightning weakness, and Tympole is normally weak to Electric, which is the type Lightning corresponds to.

Origin

Twirling Sign is an attack that first appeared on Illumise from Primal Clash. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Sword.
