Known as the Ball Whale Pokémon, Wailmer is characterized by its spherical, blue body and perpetually cheerful expression. Its Pokédex entries often highlight its playful nature, describing it as bouncing like a ball on land and in water. Wailmer's diet consists primarily of small fish and other marine organisms, which it filters through its mouth. It is frequently found in open ocean environments, enjoying the vastness of the sea. The more seawater it swallows, the higher it bounces, a unique behavior that underscores its buoyant physiology.

In the anime, Wailmer has been featured in various episodes, often depicted as a friendly and sometimes mischievous creature. Its simple yet endearing design has made it a popular choice among fans, symbolizing the vastness and wonder of the ocean. Its Water typing gives it advantages against Fire, Ground, and Rock types, while being weak to Electric and Grass types.
