Sealeo is a powerful seal-like Pokémon that was introduced in the third generation games. It is the middle form of Spheal's evolutionary line and evolves into Walrein.

Information

Sealeo evolves from Spheal at Level 32. Sealeo habitually spin objects (and sometimes even the small Spheal) on their noses. They do so to learn textures or colors, as Sealeo has a sensitive nose that can test for smell and feel upon touch. It always checks something's aroma when rolling it on its nose to see if it likes it or not. Sealeo typically live in herds on ice floes. It can shatter ice with its powerful flippers and dives into the water five times a day in search of prey.

It can evolve into Walrein at Level 44.
