Read more ↓Floatzel is a Water-type Pokémon that was first introduced in Generation IV, making its debut in the Sinnoh region with the games Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. It evolves from Buizel, a smaller, equally aquatic Pokémon. Floatzel is known as the "Sea Weasel Pokémon" due to its sleek, weasel-like appearance and its strong affinity for water. A distinctive feature of Floatzel is the large, yellow, inflatable flotation sac around its neck, which it can inflate to keep its head above water or deflate to dive. This adaptation makes it an incredibly fast swimmer, capable of assisting in the rescues of drowning people, a trait often highlighted in its Pokédex entries. Floatzel typically inhabits rivers, lakes, and coastal areas, where it hunts for aquatic prey. Its diet primarily consists of fish and other small water-dwelling creatures, which it can easily catch thanks to its speed and agility in water. In the games and anime, Floatzel is often depicted as a powerful and loyal companion, admired for its speed and strength. Its Water typing gives it an advantage against Fire, Ground, and Rock-type Pokémon, while making it vulnerable to Electric and Grass-type attacks. Its design and abilities give it a unique place in the Pokémon world, symbolizing both grace and utility in aquatic environments.
