Dewgong

() is a /-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Dewgong is a long, somewhat plump, completely white seal-like Pokémon. It has billowing fins. There is also a horn on its head that is useful for bashing through thick ice. It is somewhat just a more elegant version of Seel.
===Behavior===
Like Seel, Dewgong prefer frigid waters. They can swim at a steady 8 knots, undeterred by the cooler temperatures around them. In fact, like their pre-evolutions, Dewgong become more active in colder waters. When resting, though they do still sometimes sleep on the ocean floor or shore like Seel, they now prefer to rest on ice floes. Recent studies show that they are in fact sunbathing while doing so, with the increased temperature aiding their digestion. There, their pristine white fur can camouflage them against predators.
Dewgong no longer use their tusks and horns to play-fight, since they stop growing at this stage. However, they are still useful for poking breathing holes into ice floes while swimming under them to resurface for air.
===Natural abilities===
Dewgong are well-adapted to the frigid temperatures of their environment.
==Evolution==
Dewgong is the evolved form of Seel, as of level 34.

===Origin===
Despite its name, Dewgong more closely resembles seals than actual dugongs. Its white coat is similar to a harp seal. The large fin-like tail may be a reference to how dugongs inspired legends of mermaids. Its tusk-like teeth and single horn may also be based on walruses and narwhals. Its type may come from the fact that most pinnipeds live in cold environments.
===Etymology===
Dewgong is a combination of dew and dugong.
