Summary

Spheal is an Ice/Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

Type: Ice / Water

Abilities:

  • Thick Fat: Halves the damage taken from Fire- and Ice-type moves.
  • Ice Body (Hidden Ability): Restores HP in hail.

Physical Characteristics:

  • Spheal is a round, seal-like Pokémon with a blue body covered in light blue spots.
  • It has a large, round head with small eyes and a tiny, round nose.
  • Short, floppy ears protrude from the top of its head, and it has a small, crescent-shaped mouth.
  • Its body is mostly spherical, with small flippers and a round tail.

Behavior and Habitat:

  • Spheal is known to live in cold, icy regions, often found in icy caves or along the shores of cold seas.
  • It is a social Pokémon that moves in groups, often rolling around on ice to travel or play.
  • Spheal uses its round body to roll quickly in groups, especially when seeking food or evading predators.
  • Despite its round shape, Spheal is adept at swimming and diving.

In Battle:

  • Spheal is a versatile Pokémon that can utilize both Ice- and Water-type moves effectively.
  • Notable moves include Ice Beam, Water Gun, and Body Slam.
  • It can be used defensively due to its Thick Fat ability, reducing damage from some common types.
  • Spheal is weak against Electric, Grass, Fighting, and Rock-type moves, while it resists Water and Ice types.

Evolution:

  • Spheal evolves into Sealeo starting at level 32.
  • Sealeo then evolves into Walrein starting at level 44.

Interesting Facts:

  • Spheal's round body and playful nature closely resemble a seal pup, which is reflected in its name, a combination of "spherical" and "seal."
  • It is known to clap its fins when it is happy or as a way of communicating with others.
  • Spheal's evolutionary line emphasizes a gradual transition from land to sea, with its final form, Walrein, being a powerful sea creature.
  • Despite its cute appearance, Spheal can be quite formidable due to its evolution into the powerful Walrein.

Flavor Text Entries

  • Ruby: SPHEAL is much faster rolling than walking to get around. When groups of this Pokémon eat, they all clap at once to show their pleasure. Because of this, their mealtimes are noisy.
  • Sapphire: SPHEAL always travels by rolling around on its ball-like body. When the season for ice floes arrives, this Pokémon can be seen rolling about on ice and crossing the sea.
  • Emerald: It is completely covered with plushy fur. As a result, it never feels the cold even when it is rolling about on ice floes or diving in the sea.
  • Firered: Its body is covered in fluffy fur. The fur keeps it from feeling cold while it is rolling on ice.
  • Leafgreen: Its body is covered in fluffy fur. The fur keeps it from feeling cold while it is rolling on ice.

  • Sword: This Pokémon’s body is covered in blubber and impressively round. It’s faster for Spheal to roll around than walk.
  • Shield: As it drifts among the waves, Spheal probes the sea. As soon as it spots prey, it informs the Walrein in its herd.
  • Legends-Arceus: During the season when drift ice approaches the shore, Spheal prefers living on the ice—where fewer predators lurk—rather than the land. Its fur retains heat superbly and resists harsh cold.
