Finizen [Edit] [Talk]

Finizen is a Water-type Pokémon in the franchise of the same name. It was introduced in the ninth generation. It evolves into Palafin starting at level 38 when in a group using the Union Circle.

Physiology and Behavior[]

Finizen is a light blue cetacean Pokémon resembling a dolphin. It has a pale bluish white coloration on its underbelly that extends to its lower jaw and eyes, as well as on its dorsal fin. Its eyes have two-tone blue and pink pupils, and it has a short snout. On the sides of its body are pale bluish white wave patterns. It has a pair of pectoral fins and a split tailfin. Finizen has a ring of water surrounding the base of its tail, which it creates by mixing seawater with a fluid that it secretes from the singular blowhole atop its head. It uses this water ring to play with others of its own kind.

Finizen is able to sense the emotions of other creatures by using ultrasonic waves. It lives in pods, competes with Barraskewda for food, and is preyed upon by Dragalge.
