Relicanth (Japanese: ジーランス Glanth) is a dual-type Water/Rock Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Relicanth is a Pokémon that is heavily based on the coelacanth. It is covered with hard, brown scales that are similar to craggy rocks. Its tan head has protruding cheekbones, which are smaller on a female. A triangular spike protrudes from the back of its head. Tan patches cover its body and there is a red spot located on both sides. It possesses two pairs of pectoral fins, which it uses to push itself along the sea bottom. Additionally, it has dorsal and pelvic fins near its tail. Its tail fin has a wavy outline.

The composition of its scales, along with its fatty body and oil-filled swim bladders, allow it to withstand the intense pressure of the ocean depths. Relicanth once had teeth, but they have long since atrophied; as such, Relicanth is a filter feeder, feeding on microscopic organisms that it sucks up with its toothless mouth. It has remained unchanged for 100 million years and stays as such because it is already a perfect life-form. It was discovered during a deep-sea expedition. Relicanth's name comes from an explorer whose name served as a variation of it.

This Pokémon has no Pokédex entries in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.
Sun	Its form has remained the same for one hundred million years. Its body is filled with fat, so it can withstand the water pressure of the deep sea.
Moon	It was fortuitously discovered during a deep sea expedition. Its teeth have atrophied, so it now survives on microscopic organisms it sucks up.
Ultra Sun	Thought to have gone extinct, Relicanth was given a name that is a variation of the name of the person who discovered it.
Ultra Moon	The reason it hasn't changed at all in a hundred million years is that it's apparently already a perfect life-form.

Trivia

Relicanth's EV yield (1 HP and 1 Defense) is unique.
Relicanth shares many similarities with Fossil Pokémon, in the sense that it is also part-Rock-type, has a gender ratio of seven males to one female, and it is referred as an ancient Pokémon in some Pokédex entries.
Relicanth is the only Rock-type Pokémon with fins, and the only Rock-type Pokémon in the Water 2 Egg Group.
Relicanth is one of the two Pokémon left out of the Hoenn Pokérap; the other is Zigzagoon.

Origin

Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

On the Origin of Species: Relicanth

Relicanth appears to be based on the coelacanth, an order of fish that was thought to have gone extinct around 66 million years ago until their rediscovery in 1938. They are considered living fossils because they appear virtually unchanged from their prehistoric relatives; this is reflected in Relicanth's Rock typing (characteristic of actual Fossil Pokémon) and "elderly" appearance. Relicanth matches the Indonesian coelacanth in color, but its Shiny coloration is like that of the more well-known West Indian Ocean coelacanth. The irregular shapes on Relicanth's brown body with big red spot might be inspired by old treasure maps.

Relicanth's Pokédex entry in Pokémon Ultra Sun may reference the fact that the coelacanth genus, Latimeria, is named after Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer, the discoverer of the first modern coelacanth specimen. Relicanth may also take inspiration from placoderms, an extinct class of fish with armored heads.

Name origin

Relicanth may be a combination of relic (something old that has survived the passage of time), relict and coelacanth.

Glanth may be a combination of 爺 jī (old man) and coelacanth.

-'''Relicanth''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジーランス''' ''Glanth'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Rock}} Pokémon.
+'''Relicanth''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ジーランス''' ''Glanth'') is a dual-type {{2t|Water|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].
 It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.
 ==Biology==
-Relicanth is a Pokémon that is heavily based on the {{wp|coelacanth}}. It is covered with hard, brown scales that are similar to craggy rocks. The composition of its scales allow it to withstand the intense pressure of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean depths}}. Its tan head has protruding cheekbones, which are smaller on a female. A triangular spike protrudes from the back of its head. Tan patches cover its body and there is a red spot located on both sides. It possesses two pairs of pectoral fins, which it uses to push itself along the sea bottom. Additionally, it has dorsal and pelvic fins near its tail. Its tail fin has a wavy outline. Relicanth is a filter feeder, and it feeds on microscopic organisms with its toothless mouth. It has remained unchanged for 100 million years.

-==In the anime==
+The composition of its scales, along with its fatty body and oil-filled {{wp|swim bladder}}s, allow it to withstand the intense pressure of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean depths}}. Relicanth once had teeth, but they have long since atrophied; as such, Relicanth is a {{wp|filter feeder}}, feeding on microscopic organisms that it sucks up with its toothless mouth. It has remained unchanged for 100 million years and stays as such because it is already a perfect life-form.  It was discovered during a deep-sea expedition. Relicanth's name comes from an explorer whose name served as a variation of it.

 * Relicanth's [[Effort values|EV yield]] (1 HP and 1 Defense) is unique.

+* Relicanth is the only Rock-type {{DL|List of Pokémon by shape|Pokémon with fins}}, and the only Rock-type Pokémon in the {{egg3|Water 2}}.
+* Relicanth is one of the two Pokémon left out of the [[Hoenn Pokérap]]; the other is {{p|Zigzagoon}}.
 ===Origin===
 {{Bulbanews|On the Origin of Species: Relicanth}}
-Relicanth are based on the {{wp|coelacanth}}, an {{wp|Order (biology)|order}} of fish that was thought to be extinct. They are considered {{wp|living fossil}}s because they are virtually unchanged from their prehistoric forms. Like their real-life counterpart, Relicanth were thought to have gone extinct 100 million years ago until they were recently rediscovered in a submarine exploration. Relicanth matches the {{wp|Indonesian coelacanth}} in color, but its Shiny coloration is like that of the more well-known {{wp|West Indian Ocean coelacanth}}.
+Relicanth appears to be based on the {{wp|coelacanth}}, an {{wp|Order (biology)|order}} of fish that was thought to have gone extinct around 66 million years ago until their rediscovery in 1938. They are considered {{wp|living fossil}}s because they appear virtually unchanged from their prehistoric relatives; this is reflected in Relicanth's Rock typing (characteristic of actual [[Fossil Pokémon]]) and "elderly" appearance. Relicanth matches the {{wp|Indonesian coelacanth}} in color, but its {{Shiny}} coloration is like that of the more well-known {{wp|West Indian Ocean coelacanth}}. The irregular shapes on Relicanth's brown body with big red spot might be inspired by old {{wp|treasure map}}s.
+Relicanth's Pokédex entry in Pokémon Ultra Sun may reference the fact that the coelacanth genus, ''{{wp|Latimeria}}'', is named after {{wp|Marjorie Courtenay-Latimer}}, the discoverer of the first modern coelacanth specimen. Relicanth may also take inspiration from {{wp|placodermi|placoderms}}, an extinct class of fish with armored heads.
 ====Name origin====
-Relicanth is a combination of ''relic'' (something old that has survived the passage of time) and ''{{wp|coelacanth}}''.
