#489 Phione

“Phione (Japanese: フィオネ Phione) is a Water-type Mythical Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, but can be obtained by breeding Manaphy or another Phione with Ditto.

It is a member of the sea guardians with Manaphy.

Phione is a blue Pokémon with a round head and a tiny body. Phione’s head is crowned by a flotation sac with a long, ribbon-like antenna. Its mouth is small, and its eyes are large with blue sclerae and gray irises. Above its eyes are two blue, circular markings connected to the eyes by a thin black line. Its long, flipper-like arms have rounded tips. Phione has a red, oval gem on its chest and a single rudimentary foot spike.

Phione hatch from eggs laid by Manaphy and small groups of Phione are seen living alongside Manaphy. However, the exact relationship between the two species is unclear. Phione possesses a sac on its head which it can use to inflate and drift in the water in search of food. When the water grows warm, it will drift in packs with others of its kind. No matter how far it has drifted, it will always return to the place where it was born. Against natural predators, it uses a defense mechanism that allows its body to blend in with ocean waters. It has the ability to lift its own spirit to heal and strengthen itself in the process.

Phione and its parent Manaphy are the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Take Heart.”-Bulbapedia.
