Cetitan (Japanese: ハルクジラ Hulkujira) is an Ice-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.
It evolves from Cetoddle when exposed to an Ice Stone.
Biology
Cetitan is a large cetacean Pokémon. It has a white piscine body with large forelimbs and legs, and pink accents around its eyes, forepaws, and tail. The tail has two pairs of fins protruding from either side. Cetitan also has a gray underside with circular white accents, as well as gray accents on its armpits, and two large gray claws on each foot. It has five horns: two on the top of its head, and three around its large, wavy mouth. The singular horn on its upper jaw allows it to gather ice energy and freeze its surroundings.[1] When Cetitan opens its mouth, rows of long, teeth-like plates can be seen lining its jaws.
Cetitan has tough muscles, which allow it to support its weight and attack with immense physical power. It also has a thick layer of subcutaneous fat, which helps it migrate around snowy areas.[1] It lives in pods and shares habitats with Avalugg. As mentioned in Pokémon: Paldean Winds, in Paldea, Cetitan mainly live on top of Glaseado Mountain, and their main diet consists of snow and ice. The anime also mentions that Cetitan can use echolocation to find and communicate with others of its kind through sound waves, and that the sounds it makes is said to be similar to that of a flute.
Cetitan and its pre-evolved form, Cetoddle, are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Ice Spinner by leveling up.

In the anime
Pokémon: Paldean Winds
A wild Cetitan appeared in Breathe Out. It lived in Glaseado Mountain and chased Arven around while he was walking the mountain path, until it was calmed down by the sound of Ohara's flute.
In the manga
In the TCG
- Main article: Cetitan (TCG)
Trivia
- Cetitan is the tallest Ice-type Pokémon.
- Cetitan has the highest base HP stat of all Ice-type Pokémon.
- Cetitan has the longest cry of any Pokémon, being 4.007 seconds long.
- Cetitan and its pre-evolution were designed by Yusuke Kozaki.[2]
Origin
Cetitan appears to be based on various species of cetaceans, especially the right whale. Like Cetitan, right whales have highly arched mouths, round bodies without a dorsal fin, and torsos without ventral grooves. Cetitan's horns resemble the callosities (thick, hardened patches of skin) on the heads of right whales.
A notable species for inspiration might be the North Atlantic right whale, whose scientific name, Eubalaena glacialis, means "true whale of ice", corresponding to Cetitan's type. Cetitan debuted in the Paldea region; the real-world inspiration for Paldea, the Iberian Peninsula, is known for its history of whaling of North Atlantic right whales — especially by its indigenous Basque people — for their blubber and meat, causing their near-extinction.
Cetitan also resembles the bowhead whale, a close relative of the right whale. The bowhead whale lives in the Arctic, and is also known as the "polar whale" or the "icewhale". Other Arctic cetaceans may also have inspired the Pokémon; Cetitan's white coloration and large head may be inspired by the beluga, and its horns may draw inspiration from the narwhal.
Cetitan may also draw inspiration from the ニンゲン ningen, a Japanese cryptid whose appearance is that of a pale, whale-like being that supposedly inhabits the Antarctic oceans and walks on land using its two legs.
Name origin
Cetitan may be a combination of cetacean or Cetus (a sea monster in Greek mythology whose name became the etymology for the word cetacean) and titan.
Hulkujira may be a combination of hulk, 歩く aruku (to walk), and 鯨 kujira (whale). It may be a pun on 歯鯨 hakujira (toothed whale).
