Alomomola (Japanese: ママンボウ, HepburnMamanbou) (uh-LOH-muh-MOH-luh[1]) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Alomomola is an aquatic fish-like Pokémon. It has a pink, heart-shaped body with frilly fins. It has yellow eyes with black eyelashes.

Although it is a heart-shaped fish Pokémon, Alomomola has no relation to Luvdisc.

Behavior[]

Alomomola is a serene, and very loving and caring Pokémon. If it spots an injured Pokémon in the water, it will gently hold the creature in its fins and use its special healing membrane to heal its wounds and revive it. After healing the injured Pokémon, it will carry it back to shore.Alomomola are oddly immune to many common poisons, including that of marine Pokémon like Frillish and Tentacool. Alomomola in fact primarily prey on these species, which most other Pokémon avoid due to their incapacitating toxins.Alomomola enjoy “sunbathing,” lying down horizontally just beneath the surface.

Special Abilities[]

Alomomola possesses a special healing membrane, which it uses to revive injured Pokémon and heal their wounds.

Evolution[]

Alomomola does not evolve.

Trivia[]

  • Alomomola was revealed an Oha Suta preview of a trailer on July 21, 2010. It was officially revealed on the September issue of Coro Coro on August 8, 2010.
  • Alomomola's name is a palindrome, meaning it is spelled the same backwards as is forward.
  • Alomomola was originally thought to be related to Luvdisc, due to its similar colorings and shape. However, it does not have any relation to Luvdisc in any way.
  • Alomomola was the first Pokémon that Ash and Pikachu saw when they arrived in the Unova region; however, he had no idea what it was at the time since he had no updated Pokédex with him.
  • Alomomola is one of only two Pokémon with five syllables in their English name, the other being Feraligatr.
  • Alomomola is March on the Unova Horoscope.

Origin[]

Alomomola appears to be a combination of a discus fish, an ocean sunfish, and a heart (representing health and its ability to heal). It's ability to wrap itself in a special membrane that protects it may be a reference to the parrotfish which does the same when it sleeps.

Etymology[]

Alomomola comes from Mola mola (the scientific name for the ocean sunfish) and mom (referring to its loving, healing nature, and its title of the "Caring Pokémon").

Its Japanese name, Mamanbō, could be derived from 翻車魚 manbō (the Japanese name for the ocean sunfish) and Mama (referencing its status as the Nursing Pokémon in the Japanese games).
