===Physiology===
Jellicent is a large jellyfish-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} whose appearance varies based on gender. Both genders have five tentacles, two of which are long with petal-shaped ends. The remaining three are short and tapered. A male is blue with a short, white crown, and a white, mustache-like collar. Its eyes are red with blue sclerae, and there is one eyelash over each eye. Its long tentacles have white edges, while its short tentacles have white spots. A female is pink with a tall, white crown and a puffy, white collar. Its eyes are blue with red sclerae and surrounded by two eyelashes. Its mouth is red and heart-shaped. The long tentacles have white edges like the male, but the short ones have white frills.


====Gender differences====
Jellicent can absorb seawater and project it from its head, which lets it move forward in the sea. Jellicent's body composition is similar to seawater. Schools of Jellicent are known to gather for prey during a full moon. Any fancy cruise ships, tankers, or crew that wander into the oceans where it dwells are never found again, and it is rumored that it drags these ships or tankers into the sea and preys on its passengers. It can create lairs from sunken ships. It is known to feed on life energy, where the more it drains, the bigger its crown gets. Jellicent are highly feared by fishers.
While male Jellicent are mostly blue, females are majorly pink in color, have two eyelashes, a visible red mouth which resemble stereotypical female lips, frills on their tentacles, a tall crown, and a puffy collar around their heads. Males have one eyelash over each eye, mustache-like collars around their heads, no frills on their tentacles and a shorter crown on their heads.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* No Pokémon have the same [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|type combination]] as Jellicent and its pre-evolution.
[[File:593Jellicent Female Dream.png|thumb|150px|{{pkmn|Dream World}} artwork of female Jellicent]]
* Jellicent and its {{p|Frillish|pre-evolution}}, along with {{p|Unfezant}} are the only [[Generation V]] Pokémon that have [[List of Pokémon with gender differences|gender differences]].
* Although female {{pkmn|Dream World}} artwork exists, any {{p|Frillish}} or Jellicent uploaded to the {{pkmn|Global Link}} will use the male artwork, regardless of their gender.
** They are also the only Pokémon, besides {{p|Nidoran}}, whose gender differences are visible in their minisprites.
* Frillish and Jellicent were originally pure Water-type. The Ghost type was added to their typing for balancing reasons, with [[Ken Sugimori]] noting that the designer for the Frillish line was disappointed that they ended up becoming scary Pokémon.<ref name=ND204>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 204, April 2011 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110704155314/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-502.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream-2/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref>
* Even though Jellicent and its pre-evolution's species are the ''Floating Pokémon'', they don't have the ability [[Levitate (ability)|Levitate]]. This is even more notable due to the fact that Levitate's Japanese name is ''Floating''.


===Origin===
===Origin===
Jellicent and its pre-evolution were most likely inspired by the {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a {{wp|jellyfish}} {{wp|youkai}} that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they was inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Its design is inspired by the jellyfish, in particular the {{wp|Crown Jellyfish}}, and monarch attire; the male form's appearance based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.
Jellicent and its pre-evolved form are most likely based on {{wp|jellyfish}}; Jellicent's size and bulbous body may be drawn from the genus {{wp|Stygiomedusa}}, also known as the giant phantom jelly, which is large in size and possesses fabric-like tentacles. It also shares traits with the {{wp|crown jellyfish}} and {{wp|jelly blubber}}. Jellicent's frills and collars seem to be based on typical monarch attire; the male's appearance is based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.
 
Jellicent, as well as its pre-evolution, also seem to draw heavy inspiration from {{wp|Nurarihyon}}, a jellyfish ''{{wp|yōkai}}'' that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they were inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like {{wp|will-o'-the-wisp}}. Jellicent's dangerous ability to prey on humans, in self-defense of its habitat, is possibly based on the {{wp|box jellyfish}} and other highly venomous species of jellyfish that are capable of killing humans. The two larger tentacles Jellicent possesses are more similar to those of {{wp|squid}}s than the tentacles of real jellyfish. Jellicent also has traits in common with {{wp|sea monster}}s like the {{wp|Kraken}}, most notably its rumored penchant for destroying ships and feeding on the crew.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Its name is likely a combination of ブルー ''burū'', blue, and エンジェル ''enjeru'', angel; reference to {{wp|Sea angel}}s.
Jellicent may be a combination of ''jellyfish'' and ''magnificent'' or ''translucent''.
 
Burungel may be a combination of ブルンブルン ''burunburun'' (onomatopoeia for shaking) and ゲル ''{{wp|gel}}''.

Jellicent (Japanese: ブルンゲル Burungel) is a dual-type Water/Ghost Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves from Frillish starting at level 40.

Biology

Jellicent is a large jellyfish-like Pokémon whose appearance varies based on gender. Both genders have five tentacles, two of which are long with petal-shaped ends. The remaining three are short and tapered. A male is blue with a short, white crown, and a white, mustache-like collar. Its eyes are red with blue sclerae, and there is one eyelash over each eye. Its long tentacles have white edges, while its short tentacles have white spots. A female is pink with a tall, white crown and a puffy, white collar. Its eyes are blue with red sclerae and surrounded by two eyelashes. Its mouth is red and heart-shaped. The long tentacles have white edges like the male, but the short ones have white frills.

Jellicent can absorb seawater and project it from its head, which lets it move forward in the sea. Jellicent's body composition is similar to seawater. Schools of Jellicent are known to gather for prey during a full moon. Any fancy cruise ships, tankers, or crew that wander into the oceans where it dwells are never found again, and it is rumored that it drags these ships or tankers into the sea and preys on its passengers. It can create lairs from sunken ships. It is known to feed on life energy, where the more it drains, the bigger its crown gets. Jellicent are highly feared by fishers.

Trivia

Dream World artwork of female Jellicent
  • Although female Dream World artwork exists, any Frillish or Jellicent uploaded to the Global Link will use the male artwork, regardless of their gender.
  • Frillish and Jellicent were originally pure Water-type. The Ghost type was added to their typing for balancing reasons, with Ken Sugimori noting that the designer for the Frillish line was disappointed that they ended up becoming scary Pokémon.[1]

Origin

Jellicent and its pre-evolved form are most likely based on jellyfish; Jellicent's size and bulbous body may be drawn from the genus Stygiomedusa, also known as the giant phantom jelly, which is large in size and possesses fabric-like tentacles. It also shares traits with the crown jellyfish and jelly blubber. Jellicent's frills and collars seem to be based on typical monarch attire; the male's appearance is based on a king's while the female's is based on a queen's.

Jellicent, as well as its pre-evolution, also seem to draw heavy inspiration from Nurarihyon, a jellyfish yōkai that is either shown as a demonized jellyfish or as a jellyfish-like man who wears refined, sometimes regal, clothing. It is also possible that they were inspired by the Kurage no Hinotama, a sort of jellyfish-like will-o'-the-wisp. Jellicent's dangerous ability to prey on humans, in self-defense of its habitat, is possibly based on the box jellyfish and other highly venomous species of jellyfish that are capable of killing humans. The two larger tentacles Jellicent possesses are more similar to those of squids than the tentacles of real jellyfish. Jellicent also has traits in common with sea monsters like the Kraken, most notably its rumored penchant for destroying ships and feeding on the crew.

Name origin

Jellicent may be a combination of jellyfish and magnificent or translucent.

Burungel may be a combination of ブルンブルン burunburun (onomatopoeia for shaking) and ゲル gel.
