Horsea

Horsea, also known as the Dragon Pokémon, is a Water-type species first introduced in Generation I. As Pokédex entry #116, Horsea is renowned for its seahorse-like design, capturing the imagination of fans with its aquatic charm and mythical aura. Its typing grants it resistance to Fire and Ice, establishing it as a capable presence in various aquatic environments found across Pokémon's extensive regions.

In the mainline games, Horsea is often found in coastal waters, making its debut in the original Pokémon Red and Blue games, set in the Kanto region. It boasts the ability "Swift Swim," which doubles its speed in rain, making it a strategic choice for weather-based teams. Horsea evolves into Seadra and ultimately into Kingdra when exposed to a Dragon Scale, adding a unique Water/Dragon typing that enhances its competitive versatility.

Horsea's design is inspired by the mystical allure of marine life, with its curling tail and expressive eyes, embodying the elegance of the sea. Though not a starter Pokémon or a legendary, its accessibility early in the games and its evolutionary potential have cemented its place in many trainers' teams over the years.

Across generations, Horsea has maintained its appeal due to its simplistic yet captivating design and its evolution line, which grants it competitive viability in both casual and competitive settings. Its presence in multiple regions, including Johto, Hoenn, and beyond, highlights its adaptability and continued relevance in the Pokémon universe.
