A legendary Pokémon, Gyarados boasts impressive design and power. Its evolution from the humble Magikarp resonates with players globally, mirroring the triumph over adversity.

Milotic epitomizes elegance and power, its graceful design evoking mythical sea serpents. Known for its calming aura and resilience, Milotic's evolution from the elusive Feebas makes it a prized possession.

The ocean's fastest predator, Sharpedo's speed and powerful bite make it a formidable opponent. Its torpedo-like form and aggressive nature make it a favorite among trainers who favor high-risk, high-reward strategies.

Barraskewda

Unlike many others, Lanturn's Water/Electric typing offers unique advantages. Inspired by anglerfish, its bioluminescent lure adds intrigue. Despite its versatility, its low speed and vulnerability to Grass-type moves necessitate careful strategic deployment.

Wishiwashi

Wishiwashi's unique form-shifting ability transforms it from a small fish into a powerful school. This represents the strength of unity, but its vulnerability in its Solo Form and weakness to Grass and Electric types demand precise timing and strategy.
