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

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

Biology

Walrein is a large, sea lion-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 tailfin. 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. It can coat its body in ice and charge opponents to use its former signature move, Ice Ball. While its long tusks are capable of crushing ice, they may break during battle. This Pokémon can be found in herds, which are fiercely protected by the leader.

Major appearances

Walrein made its debut under the ownership of Team Aqua in Fight for the Meteorite!. They also appeared later in The Scuffle of Legends.

A Walrein appeared in Training Wrecks, under the ownership of Rocky. Walrein battled Ash's Pikachu and Grovyle, alongside a Quagsire. 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.

Walrein was Katie's final Pokémon while battling Ash in A Judgment Brawl. The Ice Break Pokémon defeated Ash's Swellow, and Corphish (the latter was already tired out from battling Katie's Golduck), and was defeated by Ash's Grovyle.

Minor appearances

A large group of Spheal, Sealeo and Walrein are seen at the beginning of Destiny Deoxys.

Multiple Walrein made brief cameo appearances in Giratina and the Sky Warrior.

In the manga

Walrein in Pokémon Adventures

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Walrein first appears in VS Walrein. It was used by Archie 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 win. 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.

Much later, under the guise of Guile Hideout, the same Team Aqua leader sends out a Walrein that is easily beaten by Poli alongside his Masquerain (beaten by Polibo).
