Wailmer and Wailord

Wailmer
The Ball Whale Pokémon
Type: Water
Official Registration #: 320
Entry: Wailmer have the ability to travel on land by filling their elastic bodies up with water and bouncing like beach balls up the shore and to dry ground. They can also increase the height and speed of their bounce by taking in higher volumes of water, and they enjoy doing all of this on sunny, clear days near populated beaches. Given the fact that wailmer are 6.5 feet tall and 172 pounds in their natural states, this is understandably a cause for alarm for all towns on the coasts of their native Hoenn.

Wailord
The Float Whale Pokémon
Type: Water
Official Registration #: 321
Entry: The evolved form of wailmer, by battle experience. At an average height of 47 feet, 7 inches, wailord is by far the largest documented pokémon in existence. Because of the sheer size of this pokémon and the fact that regulation fields are, for whatever reason, not that much larger than the average specimen, it is extremely difficult for trainers to raise a wailord for battling purposes. However, there is a small group of trainers who raise wailord purely for the novelty of it, especially thanks to the fact that it can crossbreed with some of the smallest pokémon on record, including diglett and skitty. Regulations intended to dissuade trainers from doing this have been brought forth before various government bodies, but given the nature of bureaucracy, any such legislation has yet to be passed.
