Walrein (Japanese: トドゼルガ Todoseruga) is a dual-type Ice/Water Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves from Sealeo starting at level 44. It is the final form of Spheal.

Biology

Walrein is a large, walrus-like Pokémon with a layer of blubber under its skin. It is primarily blue, with thin, white rings around its neck and lines on its fan-like tail-fin. There are two long, ivory tusks in its upper jaw. It has a round snout and yellow eyes, and large tufts of white fur about its face and neck. Its four short legs have long flippers instead of feet.

Walrein lives in and around icy seas, where it is insulated against the cold by its thick layer of blubber. This layer of fat also protects it from enemy attacks by causing them to bounce off. While its long tusks are capable of crushing ice up to 10 tons in one blow, they may break during battle. Walrein's tusks grow continuously throughout its life, and any broken ones will grow back by the following year. The Hisui region is famous for the many broken tusks of Walrein that can be found there. This Pokémon can be found in herds of 20 to 30 individuals, which are fiercely protected by the leader. The leader is willing to give up its life in order to protect the herd.

Prior to Generation VI, Ice Ball was its signature move, but other Pokémon could still inherit it via breeding.

Major appearances

Multiple Walrein debuted in Fight for the Meteorite!, under the ownership of Team Aqua Grunts. They reappeared in The Scuffle of Legends.

In Training Wrecks, Rocky used a Walrein and Quagsire in his battle against Ash, and the two faced off against his Pikachu and Grovyle. Before Grovyle could attack Quagsire with its Leaf Blade, Walrein attacked Grovyle with its Ice Ball. Pikachu defeated Walrein in the end, while Grovyle took care of Quagsire.

In A Judgment Brawl, a Walrein was Katie's final Pokémon during her battle with Ash. It defeated Swellow and an already-worn out Corphish before being defeated itself by Ash's Grovyle.

In Reuniting for the First Time!, Wallace used a Walrein to battle Ash, going up against his Dracovish.

Minor appearances

In A Hurdle for Squirtle, a Coordinator's Walrein competed in the Saffron Contest.

In Destiny Deoxys, multiple Walrein were startled by the crash-landing of the asteroid that contained two Deoxys. This caused them to flee, the resulting stampede traumatizing Tory Lund in the process.

Multiple Walrein appeared in Giratina and the Sky Warrior.

In PK19, a Walrein was living on the icy island.

GOTCHA!

A Walrein briefly appeared in GOTCHA!, under the ownership of Glacia.

Pokémon Adventures

In Walrein and Camerupt, Archie used a Walrein to battle against Maxie, and later when ironically fighting alongside the Magma Leader against Ruby and Sapphire, though they are able to exploit the two leader's weakness of taking little notice of each other's presence and easily won. A few more volumes later, in the climax of the Ruby & Sapphire arc, Archie sends out several more Walrein alongside Maxie's multiple Houndoom to buy time for the two to escape, but are thwarted.

In The Final Battle VII, under the guise of Guile Hideout, Archie sends out another Walrein that is easily beaten by Poli alongside his Masquerain (beaten by Polibo).
