Wailord (Japanese: ホエルオー Hoeruoo) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III. Prior to the introduction of Eternatus and Dynamax in Generation VIII, it was the largest Pokémon.

Biology

Physiology

Wailord is an immense, blue, whale-like Pokémon with small black eyes and a wide mouth filled with baleen-like teeth. It has a round, blimp-like body with two pairs of fins on either side and a small crescent-shaped tail fluke. Its underbelly is cream with vertical stripes running through it, while its back as a series of small white spots running down its length.

Behavior

Wailord is the largest Pokémon of all, and travels in pods across great expanses of the ocean. Despite its immense size it is surprisingly light, allowing it to float on water. It herds shoals of small prey into a ball and swallows them whole, with its favorite food being Wishiwashi.

Evolution

Wailord is the evolved form of Wailmer starting at level 40.

Trivia

  • Wailord has the highest amount of HP out of all Water-type Pokémon.
  • Despite Wailord being huge, it is shown to be smaller once the player character obtains it.
  • Wailord is the second longest non-dynamax of all Pokémon, behind Eternatus, but is still the longest Water-type Pokémon.
  • Despite its immense girth, Wailord is notoriously light for its size, at only 398kg. This would in fact make it less dense than air.
  • Despite being the second longest Pokémon being at 47'07", real life blue whales (the animal Wailord is based on) can grow to over 100 feet long.

Origin

Wailord is based on a blue whale with elements of a submarine or blimp.

Etymology

Wailord's name derives from whale and lord, a reference to its size.

Hoeruō is a portmanteau of whale and 王 (ō, king) or 大 (ō, big).
