Kingdra is a large, seahorse-like Pokémon with a tightly curled tail. It is covered in blue scales except for its yellow, compact belly scales. There are thin spines with a single branch atop its head and thin, white fins under its cheeks. Its thin snout is powerful, allowing squirts of water jets with devastating power to be fired. Two-pronged fins extend slightly past its cheeks. On its back is a white fin supported by thin, blue spines similar to the ones on its head. | Kingdra is a large, {{wp|seahorse}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a tightly curled tail.

The yawn of a sleeping Kingdra is powerful enough to create undercurrents capable of destroying small ships. Should it decide to emerge from the depths of the ocean, Kingdra's strength can create large whirlpools and sea-born tornadoes on the surface. Because of its immense power, Kingdra often hibernates deep in uninhabited areas of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}} to rest and build up its energy. When a storm arrives, Kingdra is said to awaken and wander about in search of prey. | The yawn of a sleeping Kingdra is powerful enough to create undercurrents capable of destroying small ships.

The scales shed by Kingdra are given to royals as gifts due to the gleam it emits. | ||

Kingdra (Japanese: キングドラ Kingdra) is a dual-type Water/Dragon Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
It evolves from Seadra when traded holding a Dragon Scale. It is the final form of Horsea.
Biology
Kingdra is a large, seahorse-like Pokémon with a tightly curled tail. It is covered in blue scales except for its yellow, compact belly scales. There are thin spines with a single branch atop its head and thin, white fins under its cheeks. Its thin snout is powerful, allowing squirts of water jets with devastating power to be fired. Two-pronged fins extend slightly past its cheeks. On its back is a white fin supported by thin, blue spines similar to the ones on its head.
The yawn of a sleeping Kingdra is powerful enough to create undercurrents capable of destroying small ships. Should it decide to emerge from the depths of the ocean, Kingdra's strength can create large whirlpools and sea-born tornadoes on the surface. Because of its immense power, Kingdra often hibernates deep in uninhabited areas of the sea to rest and build up its energy. When a storm arrives, Kingdra is said to awaken and wander about in search of prey. Kingdra is known to have fierce battles with Dragonite whenever they meet. The scales shed by Kingdra are given to royals as gifts due to the gleam it emits.

Trivia
- Kingdra's name is often mistranslated to "Kingora" in the Chuang Yi translation of Pokémon Adventures.
- Kingdra is the only Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
- Kingdra and its pre-evolved forms share their category with Dratini and its evolved forms, Salamence, and Goodra. They are all known as the Dragon Pokémon.
Origin
Kingdra appears to be based on a seahorse and the weedy seadragon. Its Dragon type and category may be a reference to the Japanese word for seahorse, 竜の落し子 tatsu-no-otoshigo, which means "dragon's child"' and is derived from the myth that a seahorse that lives for a century will transform into a dragon. The fact that it dwells on the seafloor while creating whirlpools may be a reference to Ryūjin, a Japanese sea deity, or Charybdis, a sea monster in Greek mythology. Its ability to shoot ink resembles that of a squid, while the shape of its snout and its Sniper Ability may be inspired by a water gun.
Name origin
Kingdra may be a combination of king and dragon or hydra (a mythological sea creature).
