Seaking (Japanese: アズマオウ Azumao) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon.

It evolves from Goldeen starting at level 33.

Biology

Physiology

Seaking resembles a koi or goldfish, as it is a big orange colored fish with white and black markings. It also has a small to medium sized horn on its head, two big dark eyes, and pink lips with two small, sharp fangs.

Gender differences

A female has a smaller horn.

Special abilities

Seaking is a very powerful swimmer, as it is able to swim against a river's current, and even waterfalls. It also uses its powerful horn to bore holes in solid rock, so as to keep its eggs safe.

Behavior

In autumn, its body becomes more fatty in preparing to propose to a mate. In the spawning season, they gather from all over to travel upriver. During this time, the Seaking males can be seen performing their courtship dances to woo Seaking females. The male also uses its powerful horn to bore holes in riverbed boulders, so as to keep the eggs safe, although in other seasons it will make and live in their own nests. Seaking is very protective of its eggs, and will defend its eggs with its life, fighting with its horn. The male and female will take turns patrolling around their nest and eggs, and the guarding of eggs by the Seaking goes on for over a month until the eggs hatch.

Habitat

Major appearances

Ash, Misty, and Professor Oak have owned Seaking in the past, though Ash and Misty released theirs only a short time after capturing it, due to the rules of the competition. It should be noted that Professor Oak's Seaking was invented by the dub.

Juan also owns a Seaking, which was used in a Gym battle against Ash in The Great Eight Fate!. Juan's Seaking was able to block Electric attacks with Horn Drill and send them back at its opponent.

Trivia

  • Seaking's prototype name was "Neptune", named after the god of the sea in Roman mythology.
  • Seaking and Goldeen are the only Pokémon that can learn Waterfall through leveling up. This makes it one of few Pokémon released to be able to learn an HM move by level-up.
    • Due to this, it is possible to complete any game without finding HM07.
  • Despite being called Seaking, it is found in fresh water, like real life goldfish.
    • In the Pal Park, it is found in the Pond Area.
  • Seaking's number in the Sinnoh Pokédex and the Johto Pokédex is the same: 079. This makes it and its evolution family one of only five families of Pokémon (comprising thirteen Pokémon altogether) to have the same numbers in more than one Pokédex-like listing.
  • In the anime, Seaking is the only Pokémon that both Ash and Misty have owned.
    • Incidently, both Seaking were caught and released in a single episode.

Origin

It seems to be based on a species of goldfish known as Azuma Nishiki (東錦), bearing a similar coloration to Shubunkin goldfish. The horn part may be based on Matsya, an avatar that the hindu god Vishnu assumed, which is sometimes depicted as a fish with a horn.

Name origin

Seaking's name is simply a combination of sea and king with an added pun in that it sounds similar to "sinking". Its Japanese name may be based on 小豆鱒 azukimasu, rock cod and 魔王 ma-ō, devil king. Interestingly enough, its Japanese name may also be taken to literally mean 東王 azuma-ō, East king. Furthermore, an アズマニシキ azumanishiki is a kind of goldfish. Likely the name is meant to compliment Goldeen's "queenliness" with a combination of the Azuma Nishiki (東錦) goldfish and the Japanese word for king, ou (王).

In other languages

  • German: Golking - From Gold and the English word king.
  • French: Poissoroy - From poisson (fish). Roy is the Old French spelling of roi (king).
  • Korean: 왕콘치 Wangkonchi
  • Chinese (Taiwan): 金魚王 Jīn Yú Wáng - "Goldfish King".
