The Story

What the Pokédex says

  • Legends: Arceus

    Though ball-like in shape, this Pokémon is a proficient swimmer. I have discovered that if a Mantyke spends much time with schools of Remoraid, it will eventually achieve evolution.

  • Shield

    It swims along with a school of Remoraid, and they’ll all fight together to repel attackers.

  • Sword

    Mantyke living in Galar seem to be somewhat sluggish. The colder waters of the seas in this region may be the cause.

  • Ultra Moon

    Mantyke are friendly toward people and will approach boats closely. The patterns on their backs differ depending on their habitat.

6 more entries from older games

  • Alpha Sapphire

    When it swims close to the surface of the ocean, people aboard ships are able to observe the pattern on its back.

  • Omega Ruby

    The pattern on its back varies by region. It often swims in a school of Remoraid.

  • White

    People organize tours to see this Pokémon frolic and skim the tops of waves with Remoraid.

  • Pearl

    Scientists discovered that the distinctive patterns on its back differ by region.
