Spheal (Japanese: タマザラシ, Hepburn: Tamazarashi) (SFEEL) 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.
