==Biology==
==Biology==
Primarina is a marine Pokémon that resembles a cross between a sea lion and a mermaid. Most of its body is white, but it has a long, fish-like tail. It has a long snout with round, pink nose, bright blue eyes with long white eyelashes, and long light blue hair trailing off the back of its head. A {{wp|tiara}}-like structure rests on its forehead, consisting of a line of pearls with a pink sea star at one corner and a thin, transparent blue fin extending back over its hair. Its hair is contained to a {{wp|ponytail}} by two strings of pearls. There are three fins similar to the one on its crown on its body: one that drapes around its shoulders and chest, one around its waist where the fishtail begins, and one near the tip of its tail. It has long front fins with three digits. Primarina's long fish tail is bright blue with small pointed, pink fins around its hips. The tip of the tail is white.

Primarina is a marine {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles a cross between a sea lion and a mermaid. Most of its body is white, but it has a long, blue, fish-like tail. It has a long snout with a round, pink nose, bright blue eyes with long white eyelashes, and long light blue hair trailing off the back of its head. A {{wp|tiara}}-like structure rests on its forehead, consisting of a line of pearls with a pink sea star at one corner and a thin, transparent blue fin extending back over its hair. Its hair is contained to a {{wp|ponytail}} by two strings of pearls. This ponytail, as shown in the [[core series|games]] and {{pkmn|anime}}, becomes temporarily undone when it performs certain moves. On its body are three fins similar to the one on its crown: one that drapes around its shoulders and chest, one around its waist where the fishtail begins, and one near the tip of its tail. It has long front fins with three digits. Primarina's long fishlike tail is bright blue with small pointed, pink fins around its hips. Its tail fins are white, and it is capable of using them as feet to stand up.


Primarina uses water balloons and its voice as its main weapons. Water balloons are releases as it dances, and are controlled by its voice. In the moonlight, the balloons glitter and create a beautiful scene. However, some of the balloons are explosive and triggered by touch. This Pokémon uses the non-explosive balloons as platforms to tease opponents.<ref>http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/primarina/</ref> Because its voice is instrumental in its battle strategy, its care should be a priority for Trainers. The melody it uses has been passed down for generations.

The melody it uses has been passed down for generations. Water balloons are released as it dances, and are controlled by its voice.

This theatrical Pokémon considers every battle a stage and uses the non-explosive balloons as platforms to tease opponents.<ref>[http://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/en-us/pokemon/primarina/ Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Primarina]</ref>

Primarina (Japanese: アシレーヌ Ashirene) is a dual-type Water/Fairy Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

It evolves from Brionne starting at level 34. It is the final form of Popplio.

Biology

Lana's Primarina's hair undone while using Sparkling Aria

Primarina is a marine Pokémon that resembles a cross between a sea lion and a mermaid. Most of its body is white, but it has a long, blue, fish-like tail. It has a long snout with a round, pink nose, bright blue eyes with long white eyelashes, and long light blue hair trailing off the back of its head. A tiara-like structure rests on its forehead, consisting of a line of pearls with a pink sea star at one corner and a thin, transparent blue fin extending back over its hair. Its hair is contained to a ponytail by two strings of pearls. This ponytail, as shown in the games and anime, becomes temporarily undone when it performs certain moves. On its body are three fins similar to the one on its crown: one that drapes around its shoulders and chest, one around its waist where the fishtail begins, and one near the tip of its tail. It has long front fins with three digits. Primarina's long fishlike tail is bright blue with small pointed, pink fins around its hips. Its tail fins are white, and it is capable of using them as feet to stand up.

Primarina uses water balloons and its voice as its main weapons. Because its voice is instrumental in its battle strategy, its care should be a priority for Trainers. The melody it uses has been passed down for generations. Water balloons are released as it dances, and are controlled by its voice. In the moonlight, the balloons glitter and create a beautiful scene. However, some of the balloons are explosive and triggered by touch. This theatrical Pokémon considers every battle a stage and uses the non-explosive balloons as platforms to tease opponents.[1]

Primarina is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Sparkling Aria by leveling up. Primarina is also the only known Pokémon capable of using the Z-Move Oceanic Operetta. Additionally, Primarina and its pre-evolved forms are the only known Pokémon that can have Liquid Voice as an Ability.

Evolution

Primarina evolves from Brionne and is the final form of Popplio.

  • Primarina has the highest Special Attack and Special Defense stats among all first partner Pokémons' final evolutions, excluding Mega Evolutions.
  • Official confidential art featuring Decidueye, Incineroar, Primarina, and Mallow was leaked on the Internet on June 4, 2016. This leak happened 145 days before these Pokémon were officially revealed on October 27, 2016.[2] From the leaked material it is known that Primarina's code name was "アシカ 3", or "Sea Lion 3" during development.

Origin

Primarina is based on a sea lion.[2] It also shares elements with a mermaid, with inspiration from Sirens. Its behavior and appearance may also be inspired by ballerinas, opera singers, and the Pierrot character. It may also draw inspiration from selkies.

Name origin

Primarina may be a combination of prima donna, marina, and ballerina.

Ashirene may be a combination of 海驢 ashika (sea lion) and sirène (French for mermaid or siren).
