Trivia
- Wailord has the highest amount of HP out of all Water-type Pokémon.
- It is the biggest of all Pokémon.
- Despite its immense girth Wailord is notoriously light for its size, at only 398 kg. This would in fact make it less dense than air.
- Wailord's inclusion in the Field Egg Group allows it to breed with much smaller Pokémon, notably Skitty.
- Despite being the biggest Pokémon being at 47'07", real life blue whales (the animal Wailord is based on) can grow to over 100 feet tall.
Origin
Wailord's name derives from "whale", the animal, and "lord", a reference to its size.
