Mantine (Japanese: マンタイン Mantain; German: Mantax; French: Demanta) is a Water/Flying-type Pokémon.

In February 2006, a scan from the March issue of CoroCoro unveiled a new ledgendary, alongside three silhouettes. One of these silhouettes has been speculated to be a pre-evolution of Mantine named タマンタ Tamanta.
