Huntail

() is a -Type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Huntail is a blue Pokémon with a long eel-shaped body. Its body is covered in circles, white in the middle and orange in the edges of the circle. It has orange fins covering its body. Its tail ends in a round shape with two small fins protruding outwards.
=== Behavior ===
Huntail dwell in deep ocean waters, where little light ever penetrates. Despite this, their eyes are very keen, letting them see clearly even in the murky depths. Their sturdy spines allow them to survive the crushing pressure of the deep. Huntail utilize bioluminescence to capture prey. The spots on their bodies light up to attract food. They are not very strong swimmers, and instead use their fish-shaped tails to lure in prey. The “eyes” on their tails glow as they wave them back and forth, fooling victims into swimming closer. Then, they unhinge their jaws and swallow their victims whole. Huntail swim by wriggling their bodies like snakes. On occasion, one of their teeth may fall off as they feed. 
Huntail may occasionally be found near the surface of the water, but such sightings are extremely rare; the significant difference in pressure from their natural habitats is detrimental to their health, so surfacing Huntail are likely very ill and in need of immediate medical attention. It is said that a Huntail washing up on shore is an omen of bad things to come.
==Evolution==
Huntail evolves from Clamperl by trade while holding a Deep Sea Tooth.

===Origin===
Huntail may be based on a viperfish or eel.
Its Ultra Moon Pokédex entry implies it may be based on an oarfish, fish known for their long bodies. The Pokédex entry states that Huntail that wash ashore are a sign of something bad to come, which may reference a belief in Japan that beached oarfish are a sign of future disasters, mainly earthquakes.
===Etymology===
Huntail comes from hunter and tail.
