Spheal (Japanese: タマザラシ, HepburnTamazarashi) (SFEEL[1]) is an Ice/Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

Spheal appears to be a plump, round sphere shaped seal with blue skin and three bubbles on it as well. They also have two small fangs along with a beige underside.

Behavior[]

Spheal tend to be found in groups in the wild and they are friendly Pokémon, especially if they are fed berries. A group of Spheal will often clap in excitement when they enjoy their meal. Despite its flippers and tail, it has a difficult time swimming or even walking and instead, a Spheal is often found rolling around like a ball. The Pokedex states that a Spheal's body is coated in fluffy fur to help protect it from the ice as it is rolling around.

Natural abilities[]

Spheal has the abilities Thick Fat and Ice Body along with the hidden ability Oblivious. Thick Fat halves the power of Fire and Ice-type moves whilst Ice Body heals a little bit of Spheal's HP during hailstorms including non-Ice types who also gain the ability to not be affected by hail. Oblivious prevents Spheal from being attracted.

Evolution[]

Spheal evolves into Sealeo at level 32, which then evolves in Walrein at level 44.
