About Seel

Seel (Pokémon)

Seel (Japanese: パウワウ Pawou) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It evolves into Dewgong starting at level 34. Seel is known for its distinct appearance and adaptations to cold environments.

Seel is a pinniped Pokémon characterized by its thick, bluish-white fur and a small horn on its forehead. It has a pale tan maw, large red tongue, and tusks on its lower jaw. Seel's black nose is capable of closing when it swims, aiding its underwater activities. Its body structure includes two flippers on its chest and another pair at the end of its tail, which, when raised, resembles a waterspout. These features highlight its adaptation to icy habitats.

In the Pokémon world, Seel inhabits icebergs in frigid ocean waters. Its warm fur and thick hide allow it to survive and thrive in temperatures as low as -40° Fahrenheit (-40° Celsius). Seel is primarily nocturnal, hunting for prey under sheets of ice during the late day and evening hours. Despite its gracefulness in water, Seel is awkward on dry land, reflecting its specialization in aquatic life. It becomes more active in colder temperatures and tires quickly in warm waters.

Seel's abilities and characteristics are integral to its survival. It can bore through ice floes using its horn and tusks, and its circular eyes and capable nose enhance its underwater navigation. As a Water-type Pokémon, Seel is unique for having Ice Body as an ability, despite not being an Ice-type itself. This ability provides immunity to hail damage, a trait not shared by other Pokémon with Ice Body. Seel's evolutionary line, shared with Dewgong, and its categorization as the Sea Lion Pokémon, emphasize its role and niche within the Pokémon world.
