From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Sealeo (Japanese: トドグラー Todoggler) is a dual-type Ice/Water Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It evolves from Spheal starting at level 32 and evolves into Walrein starting at level 44.
Biology
Sealeo is a bright-blue, pinniped Pokémon. Its throat and chest are beige with speckling around the edges. There are two short tusks protruding from its upper jaw, and it has dark brown, oval eyes. It has a powerful pair of front flippers, which are able to crush ice. Additionally, it has a short, flipper-like tail. On the sides of its blunt muzzle are thick, white whiskers. Sealeo's white whiskers are described as being super sensitive.
When a Sealeo encounters new objects, they are placed on its nose and rolled around to test its smell and texture. The reason is to determine if it likes the object or not. It has also been known to roll Spheal or Poké Balls on its nose. The reason Sealeo does this to Spheal is to check its scent and ensure it is still healthy. This Pokémon lives in the sea and on drift ice. Sealeo dives underwater to hunt for prey five times a day. It searches for the prey by its scent.
Prior to Generation VI, Ice Ball was its signature move, but other Pokémon could still inherit it via breeding.
Evolution
Sealeo evolves from Spheal and evolves into Walrein.

Trivia
Origin
Sealeo appears to be based on an earless seal with elements of a walrus. Its habit of playing with objects with its nose may be a reference to sea lions that have been trained to play with balls using their noses.
Name origin
Sealeo may be a combination of sea or seal and leo (Latin for "lion"), in reference to sea lion.
Todoggler may be a combination of 胡獱 todo (Steller sea lion) and juggler.
