Finneon (Japanese: ケイコウオ Keikouo) is a Water-type Pokémon.
Contents |
Biology
Physiology
Finneon is a small fish Pokémon with a football-shaped body. The bottom half of its body is light-blue while the top half is black. A purple stripe runs across Finneon's horizontal length. Finneon has small blue pectoral fins, two black oval-shaped dorsal fins and purple eyes. Finneon's most notable feature is the pair of caudal fins that resemble a pair of blue butterfly wings with purple spots. It is these fins that have given this Pokémon the nickname "Beautifly Of The Sea."
Gender differences
The bottom lobes of a female's tail fin are bigger than a male's.
Special abilities
Finneon can use various Water-type attacks such as Water Gun and Surf as well as Ice Beam and Blizzard. To coincide with the fact that Finneon looks as if it has a pair of butterfly wings, it can learn Silver Wind, Gust and U-turn.
