'''Seadra''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''シードラ''' ''Seadra'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
'''Seadra''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''シードラ''' ''Seadra'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation I]].
 
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Horsea}} starting at [[level]] 32 and evolves into {{p|Kingdra}} when {{DL|Trade|Pokémon that evolve when traded|traded}} while holding a [[Dragon Scale]].


It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Horsea}} starting at [[level]] 32, and evolves into {{p|Kingdra}} when [[trade]]d holding a {{DL|Evolution-inducing held item|Dragon Scale}}.
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]] for these details.)


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Seadra is a light blue, {{wp|fish|piscine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that is similar to a {{wp|seahorse}} with a cream-colored belly covered in rough scales. It has a long, tubular mouth, narrow, black eyes, a fin-like ridge above each eye, and spiny {{wp|fish fin|pectoral fins}}. It also has a large, coiled tail. It has a pair of {{wp|dorsal fin}}s with sharp, cream-colored tips that exude venom. Seadra's venom is toxic enough to induce numbness and even fainting in humans, but it is still prized among practitioners of traditional medicine.
Seadra is a primarily blue {{wp|seahorse}} Pokémon. It has {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon consisting of a head and a base| no arms or legs}}. It has a long snout and a number of spikes on its head, on the sides and on the top. Its torso is covered with rough, cream-colored scales. Seadra's pectoral fins have sharp, pointed, cream-colored tips from which it exudes venom. It also has a large tail, which is generally coiled up.
====Gender differences====
None.


===Special abilities===
Seadra can swim in any direction while facing forward by rapidly flapping its fins and tail. It catches its prey by spinning its body to create large whirlpools. When its prey is exhausted, Seadra swallows it whole using its long snout. Seadra makes its nest by either wriggling between or anchoring itself to branches of coral under the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|ocean}}. After a female Seadra gives birth, the male Seadra will take care of the young. It is markedly vicious and will mercilessly attack those who venture near its nest. During this time, the male's venom also becomes thicker and stronger than usual.
It is capable of swimming backwards while facing forward. Despite being a pure {{type|Water}}, it is capable of learning several {{type|Dragon}} moves.


Although Seadra is not fully-evolved, it can use {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}, since it was fully-evolved in [[Generation I]].  
===Evolution===
Seadra evolves from {{p|Horsea}} and evolves into {{p|Kingdra}}.


===Behavior===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
Seadra can swim facing backwards by rapidly flapping its fins and its coiled tail. They will find coral reefs to sleep in. They catch their prey by spinning their body to create large {{m|whirlpool}}s which tire their foes. Seadra then swallow the victim whole using their long snout.

{{Evobox-3
After the female Seadra gives birth, the male Seadra will take care of the young and its nest. It will viciously attack those who venture too near to its children.

{{adv|Silver}} had a Seadra as a part of his team, although it was not shown at the time. During the events of {{PAV|9}}, Silver secretly sends Seadra to {{adv|Gold}} via trade for his [[Polibo|Poliwhirl]], triggering Seadra's evolution into {{p|Kingdra}}, upon which it was finally shown attacking {{DL|Gold (Adventures)|Sudobo}}.
In ''[[PS043|Sea Sea Seadra]]'', A Seadra attacked [[Bill]] as he made his way through [[Viridian Forest]]. It managed to suck him into a {{m|Whirlpool}}, but it was caught by {{adv|Yellow}} with the help of [[Pika]]. She released it after she healed it.
In ''[[PS123|Debonaire Dragonair]]'', one of [[Clair]]'s disciple's, named Ron, used a Seadra in a training battle against Clair. It was defeated by [[Clair's Dragonair]].

===Origin===
===Origin===
Seadra is based on a {{wp|seahorse}}, though its ability to shoot ink resembles that of a {{wp|squid}}. The fact that it's known as the Dragon Pokémon might be a reference to {{wp|Leafy sea dragon}}s. Its large, spiky, poisonous fins may be inspired by the {{wp|lion fish}}.
Seadra seems to be based on a {{wp|seahorse}}. Its {{pkmn|category}} may be a reference to the Japanese word for seahorse, ''tatsu-no-otoshigo'' (dragon's child), which is derived from the myth that a seahorse that lives for a century will transform into a {{wp|dragon}}.

Seadra (Japanese: シードラ Seadra) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves from Horsea starting at level 32 and evolves into Kingdra when traded while holding a Dragon Scale.

(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)

Biology

Seadra is a light blue, piscine Pokémon that is similar to a seahorse with a cream-colored belly covered in rough scales. It has a long, tubular mouth, narrow, black eyes, a fin-like ridge above each eye, and spiny pectoral fins. It also has a large, coiled tail. It has a pair of dorsal fins with sharp, cream-colored tips that exude venom. Seadra's venom is toxic enough to induce numbness and even fainting in humans, but it is still prized among practitioners of traditional medicine.

Seadra can swim in any direction while facing forward by rapidly flapping its fins and tail. It catches its prey by spinning its body to create large whirlpools. When its prey is exhausted, Seadra swallows it whole using its long snout. Seadra makes its nest by either wriggling between or anchoring itself to branches of coral under the ocean. After a female Seadra gives birth, the male Seadra will take care of the young. It is markedly vicious and will mercilessly attack those who venture near its nest. During this time, the male's venom also becomes thicker and stronger than usual.

Evolution

Seadra evolves from Horsea and evolves into Kingdra.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Trivia

Origin

Seadra seems to be based on a seahorse. Its category may be a reference to the Japanese word for seahorse, tatsu-no-otoshigo (dragon's child), which is derived from the myth that a seahorse that lives for a century will transform into a dragon. Its spiky, poisonous fins are reminiscent of a lionfish, its ability to shoot ink is reminiscent of a squid, and the shape of its snout and Sniper Ability are reminiscent of a water gun.

Name origin

Seadra may be a combination of sea or seahorse and dragon, seadragon, or Hydra (a mythological sea creature).
