Spheal(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is an Ice / Water type Pokémon introduced in the Third generation. It evolves into Sealeo starting at level 32.
Physiology and Behaviour[]
Spheal is a chubby, spherical, seal-like Pokémon with a short, flat tail. Its plushy fur is light blue with several white spots of various sizes on its back. This covering of fluffy fur protects Spheal from the cold. It has black, circular eyes; small tusks protruding from its upper jaw; and small, rounded ears. Its stubby flippers and its underside are both beige.
When it is happy or cheerful, such as when eating in a group, this Pokémon will clap its fins. The mealtimes of Spheal have been described as noisy as a result. Because its body is poorly shaped for swimming and can only walk slowly, it moves primarily by rolling across ice floes. It can even coat itself in ice while rolling to use its former signature move, Ice Ball. Spheal are often juggled by its evolved form Sealeo. This Pokémon lives in and around the sea. When a Spheal finds prey while drifting at sea, it will inform the Walrein leader of its herd on where to find the prey.
