Pokédex entry

Behind its lithe, elegant appearance lies a barbaric side. It will tear apart its prey on a mere whim.

しなやかな　からだの　うちがわに　きまぐれに　えものを　ひきさいて　もてあそぶ　やばんさを　ひめている。

Mini-game

The long strip contains data for the Pika Pop mini-game. Three other cards from the Skyridge expansion are required to play it.

Trivia

Lunge is a move later introduced in the Generation VII Pokémon games that Persian cannot learn. The phrase "You opponent" in Surprise Slash should read "Your opponent".
