Its vulnerabilities include Ground-type and Fighting-type. In the anime, an Empoleon is owned by Barry and Kenny.

It also appears to have metal flippers with blue metal bordering it and three orange small claws underneath its flippers. It has a blue fin at the back along with a tail and a giant metal blue fin in the center of it starting from its chin. Empoleon also appears to have something looking like a tuxedo that it is wearing. It also mainly has a black body with a some white in the center of it along with black spots at the bottom of its white part of body. It also has two giant golden spots on the back of it along with a three horned trident crest making its beak.
Special Abilities
Empoleon's ability in the game is Torrent, (along with all the other water starters) which increases the power of its Water-type attacks by 50% when its HP is at less than 1/3 of its maximum level of HP.
Although Empoleon is a Water/Steel-type Pokémon, it can learn a variety of Water, Ice, Steel and attacks. It can also learn many moves involving claws, such as Metal Claw and Shadow Claw. It can learn Hydro Pump, a very powerful Water type move.

Trivia
- Empoleon is the only Water-type, fully evolved Starter Pokémon that is not resistance to Fire-type moves due to its Steel-type as a secondary.
- It can be noted that Empoleon bears a resemblance to Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule, that in which both are kings in their own way and have crowns. That being said, both contain a symmetrical design on their bodies.
