Manaphy is a small, blue, aquatic {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with stubby feet and club-like arms that are longer than its body. It has a red gem on its chest and a yellow dot below the gem. Its onion-shaped head has a pair of long blue antennae, which have small spheres on the ends. Its irises are dark blue with yellow sclerae, and there are two yellow dots of "eyelash" markings extending from the eyes.

Eighty percent of Manaphy's body is made of water. It is highly susceptible to its environment and swims long distances to return to its birthplace. Manaphy is known to live the Sea, specially cold seafloor. It is born with a special power that allows it to bond with any Pokémon. Manaphy can switch the perspective of people, and Pokémon, with each other using its former [[signature move]], {{m|Heart Swap}}. Manaphy has been reared to as ''Prince of the Sea''. As seen in the [[M09|anime]], Manaphy is capable of learning and speaking the human language.
Eighty percent of Manaphy's body is made of water. It is highly susceptible to its environment and swims long distances to return to its birthplace. Manaphy prefers to live deep underwater, on the cold seafloor. It has been known to visit the coastal waters of [[Hisui]], occasionally with Phione following it. It is born with a special power that allows it to bond with any Pokémon. Manaphy can switch the perspective of people, and Pokémon, with each other using {{m|Heart Swap}}, one of its [[signature move]]s prior to [[Generation VII]] and in [[Generation VIII]]. One epithet for Manaphy is "Prince of the Sea". As as depicted in ''[[M09|Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', Manaphy is capable of learning and speaking the human language. Manaphy is capable of breeding Phione; despite their resemblance and familial links, the connection between the two is unknown at this point.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
When released from a {{i|Poké Ball}}, Manaphy uses {{m|Heart Swap}}, which temporarily switches the body of the user with another player. KO's count for the player in control, not the character's normal player, preventing easy KOs via suicide.
====Trophy information====
''"A Seafaring Pokémon. Eighty percent of its body is made of water. It has the ability Hydration, which allows it to restore status effects at the end of the turn if it's [[rain]]ing. It is the only Pokémon who can use the stat-effect-swapping move called {{m|Heart Swap}}. Place a Manaphy and a {{p|Ditto}} in the Pokémon Day Care, and they will produce a Phione egg."''
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===
Manaphy appears as an occasional stage hazard in the {{DL|Pokémon League (Kalos)|Flood Chamber}} of the {{st|Kalos Pokémon League}} stage. Appearing rarely, it will use {{m|Whirlpool}} to create a maelstrom on the floor of the stage, sucking in any fighters standing in the water in an attempt to KO them.
====Trophy information====
''This Water-type Pokémon is said to have the mysterious ability to bond with any other Pokémon. It's also said to appear occasionally in the Water-type Elite Four Trainer's room in the Kalos Pokémon League stage. When it appears on the stage, it'll use its Whirlpool move to drag fighters into the middle of the swirling waters.''
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Manaphy once again appears on the Kalos Pokémon League stage. Its behavior is the same as it was in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Manaphy also appears as a {{sbw|Spirits (characters)|Spirit}}.

Furthermore, any Shiny Manaphy that was hatched from a traded egg can be able to pass Poké Transporter's legality check.

With Manaphy's title as the "Prince[ss] of the Sea" and Phione's unclear status as Mythical, it may also take influence from the illegitimate children of royalty and nobility, whose worthiness to inherit their parents' status is often disputed.

Manaphy (Japanese: マナフィ Manaphy) is a Water-type Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Manaphy has the unusual ability to breed despite being a Mythical Pokémon, although it can only be bred with Ditto due to being a gender-unknown Pokémon. Manaphy's offspring are Phione, which do not evolve into Manaphy.

Along with Phione, Manaphy is considered to be one of the Sea guardians.

Manaphy is the last Pokémon in the Sinnoh Pokédex in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl.

Biology

Manaphy is a small, blue, aquatic Pokémon with stubby feet and club-like arms that are longer than its body. It has a red gem on its chest and a yellow dot below the gem. Its onion-shaped head has a pair of long blue antennae, which have small spheres on the ends. Its irises are dark blue with yellow sclerae, and there are two yellow dots of "eyelash" markings extending from the eyes.

Eighty percent of Manaphy's body is made of water. It is highly susceptible to its environment and swims long distances to return to its birthplace. Manaphy prefers to live deep underwater, on the cold seafloor. It has been known to visit the coastal waters of Hisui, occasionally with Phione following it. It is born with a special power that allows it to bond with any Pokémon. Manaphy can switch the perspective of people, and Pokémon, with each other using Heart Swap, one of its signature moves prior to Generation VII and in Generation VIII. One epithet for Manaphy is "Prince of the Sea". As as depicted in Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, Manaphy is capable of learning and speaking the human language. Manaphy is capable of breeding Phione; despite their resemblance and familial links, the connection between the two is unknown at this point.

Manaphy and its counterpart Phione are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Take Heart.

In Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, a Manaphy was initially an Egg that an evil gang and its leader, The Phantom, wanted to steal. Manaphy hatched in May's hands and helped the People of the Water find the Sea Temple Samiya. It is known as the Prince of the Sea.

Other

In Pikachu, What's This Key?, Meowth, Wobbuffet, and Inkay visited a Manaphy courtesy of Klefki's keys. They witnessed it in a water world full of floating spheres of water, before being launched into the sky by a Wailord.

Minor appearances

Manaphy debuted in the opening sequence of Pikachu's Ocean Adventure.

In the opening sequence of The Rise of Darkrai, a Manaphy was tailing a Kyogre in the ocean.

A Manaphy appeared in the opening sequence of Arceus and the Jewel of Life.

In the manga

Movie adaptations

Main article: Manaphy (M09)

Manaphy appears in the manga adaptation of Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea.

Pocket Monsters DP

A Manaphy appeared in PMDP11, where Red and his Pokémon found it at sea. Professor Oak investigated it and told the group about the Egg hatching into a Legendary Pokémon. It later hatched into Manaphy but became lazy due to Clefairy's parenting skills.

A Manaphy appeared in PMDP29.

Pokémon Adventures

Manaphy first appeared as a silhouette in the Emerald arc. Guile Hideout questioned going after it should he succeed in his plans. It later appeared as a silhouette in a fantasy in Unplugging Rotom (Heat, Wash, Mow, Fan, Frost).

In The Final Dimensional Duel XI, Looker delivered Manaphy's Egg, which he had received in Fiore, to Diamond and Pearl, who hatched it. Later, a Phione Egg appeared by Manaphy at the Pokémon Day Care in Solaceon Town. It was seen walking with the Day-Care Couple, meeting its offspring through the fence.

Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission

In Pokémon Ranger the Comic: Double Mission, Cameron from Summerland found Manaphy's Egg on Fiore's Sea. Then, it was stolen by the Go-Rock Squad, who wanted to use its enormous powers for bad purposes when it hatched. This plan failed when Solana and Lunick saved the Egg and it was given to a Trainer who lives in Sinnoh.

In the TCG

Main article: Manaphy (TCG)

In the TFG

One Manaphy figure has been released.

Other appearances

Manaphy in Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

When released from a Poké Ball, Manaphy uses Heart Swap, which temporarily switches the body of the user with another player. KO's count for the player in control, not the character's normal player, preventing easy KOs via suicide.

Trophy information

"A Seafaring Pokémon. Eighty percent of its body is made of water. It has the ability Hydration, which allows it to restore status effects at the end of the turn if it's raining. It is the only Pokémon who can use the stat-effect-swapping move called Heart Swap. Place a Manaphy and a Ditto in the Pokémon Day Care, and they will produce a Phione egg."

Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Manaphy appears as an occasional stage hazard in the Flood Chamber of the Kalos Pokémon League stage. Appearing rarely, it will use Whirlpool to create a maelstrom on the floor of the stage, sucking in any fighters standing in the water in an attempt to KO them.

Trophy information

This Water-type Pokémon is said to have the mysterious ability to bond with any other Pokémon. It's also said to appear occasionally in the Water-type Elite Four Trainer's room in the Kalos Pokémon League stage. When it appears on the stage, it'll use its Whirlpool move to drag fighters into the middle of the swirling waters.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Manaphy once again appears on the Kalos Pokémon League stage. Its behavior is the same as it was in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Manaphy also appears as a Spirit.

Trivia

  • Manaphy's English name was uncovered, alongside the English name of Sinnoh, within the internal data of Pokémon Ranger on November 2, 2006.
  • Manaphy and Ditto are the only Pokémon that are able to breed and yet are unobtainable through breeding.
  • Manaphy and Phione (if one counts Phione as Mythical) are the only Mythical Pokémon capable of producing Eggs in a Day Care or Nursery legitimately.
  • Although normally gender unknown, in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness, Manaphy is constantly referred to as a male.
    • In Pokémon Ranger, it is also known as the "Prince of the Sea" in the British English versions of the game; however, it is referred to as the "Princess of the Sea" in American English versions.
    • It is referred to as "a Pokémon known as the prince" in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, in a book in the Canalave Library.
  • In the games, Manaphy is the only Pokémon whose Egg sprite is different than the standard sprite.
    • Despite the fact that Eggs cannot be transferred via Poké Transfer, Manaphy's Egg is found in the coding of the Generation V games. Location data for Pokémon Ranger also exists in those games.
    • Manaphy's Egg has a unique hatching animation in Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, SoulSilver, Brilliant Diamond, and Shining Pearl.
  • In Pokémon Platinum, the player can register Manaphy as seen in the Pokédex by inspecting a book in Mr. Backlot's room at the Pokémon Mansion.
  • Like the majority of Event Pokémon obtained through Mystery Gift, it was intended to be impossible to obtain a Shiny Manaphy. However, an oversight in Generation IV allows a Manaphy Egg to have a chance to hatch Shiny, but only if it was traded before hatching. This is because Shininess is dependent on the Trainer ID number and Secret ID number, and the game mistakenly attempts to prevent Shininess using the original game's ID numbers instead of the ID numbers of the game that it was traded to. This oversight was undone by the time Manaphy's Egg returned in Generation VIII. Shiny Manaphy that are hatched from a traded Egg can still pass Poké Transporter's legality check.
  • Because breeding Manaphy with Ditto produces only Phione Eggs, there has yet to be an explanation on how Manaphy Eggs are produced.

Origin

Bulbanews
Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

Manaphy may be based on sea angels, tiny transparent ocean mollusks. The Manaphy Egg's design is similar to Turritopsis dohrnii.

Manaphy's trait of only being able to produce Phione as offspring may be inspired by eusociality, a biological phenomenon which usually manifests in a colony of animals having a sole breeding female, or queen, tended to by her usually infertile offspring, or an example of a highly rare and unique mutation such as albinism or polydactyly.

Name origin
