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

Physiology

Walrein is a large, blubbery pinniped-like Pokémon, primarily blue in coloration with white accentuation. Walrein has two long, yellow walrus-like tusks, of which it uses extensively to fight and shatter ice. Walrein’s irises are also yellow, and it has large, white-colored features, somewhat resembling sea foam in shape, extending from the sides of its head like a mane. Its head is also white, with a round, somewhat pig-like blue nose. Walrein has white patterning around its neck in the form of two encircling stripes, and its short tail also has white creases.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

Walrein, and its evolution family, Spheal and Sealeo, are the only known Pokémon that can learn Ice Ball.

Walrein are very strong and mighty; their thick blubber can hold off an enormous amount of attacks, and reduce damage dealt by Fire-type moves. Their tough tusks can break through the thickest and heaviest ice.

Behavior

Walrein live in large groups near the shore with their pre-evolved forms. These groups are always led by the largest male Walrein who acts as the beachmaster. Fighting for dominance among males can get pretty fierce, and many are the male Walrein who bear scars from challenging the beachmaster and losing.

Habitat

Walrein live in the arctic seas.

Diet

In the anime

Throughout the anime, Walrein have been used as henchmen by Team Aqua.

A Walrein has also appeared in Training Wrecks, under the ownership of Rocky. Walrein battled Ash's Pikachu and Grovyle, alongside a Quagsire. Before Grovyle could nail Quagsire with its Leaf Blade Walrein would nail Grovyle with its Ice Ball, but 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 Walrus 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.

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

In the manga

Walrein first appears in VS. Walrein. It was used by Archie to battle against Maxie.

Trivia

Origin

The walrus seems to be the inspiration behind this Pokémon.

Name origin

Walrein's name may be a combination of walrus and a misspelling of reign, or perhaps rain.

Todoseruga may be a combination of 海馬 todo, sea lion, and 海象 seiuchi, walrus.

In other languages

• German: Walraisa
• French: Kaimorse - From morse (walrus) and possibly the German word kaiser.
• Korean: 씨카이저 Seekaiser
