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.

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.

Trivia

  • While Walrein could not learn Fury Cutter by Emerald move tutor, it is able to learn it in Platinum.
  • Some would mistake Walrein to have two more legs than a realistic walrus. it's lower legs are actually it's tail, covered with webbings.

Origin

The walrus seems to be the inspiration behind this Pokémon.

Name origin

Walrein's name is a combination of walrus and a misspelling of reign. Its Japanese name may be a combination of 海馬 todo, sea lion, and 海象 seiuchi, walrus.
