Seaking is a large, orange, fish-like Pokémon. It has billowing caudal and pectoral fins, all of which are white specked with black. However, its dorsal fin is pure white and rigid. It has round, dark eyes, prominent pink lips, small fangs, and a horn in the center of its forehead. Females have smaller horns than males.
Seaking is a primarily orange and white, fish-like Pokémon. It has round, dark eyes, prominent pink lips, two small fangs, and a cream-colored horn in the center of its forehead. A female will have a smaller horn than a male. Most of its body is orange with a patch of white under its mouth and along its underside. There are several black markings on its body: two thick lines under each eye, a large wavy patch on its back, and several speckles near its tail. It has billowing {{wp|fish fin|pectoral fins}} and a pair of tail fins shaped like butterfly wings, all of which are white specked with black. However, its {{wp|dorsal fin}} is pure white and rigid.


Seaking is a very powerful swimmer that is found in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|rivers and streams}}. It can not only swim against a river's current but it can travel up waterfalls. In the autumn spawning season, it travels upriver, where male Seaking, grown fattier and more vibrant in color, engage in elaborate dances to court females. Seaking uses its powerful horn to bore holes in riverbed boulders in order to shelter its [[Pokémon Egg|Eggs]] from water currents. A mated pair takes turns patrolling around their new nest for roughly a month, and defends it with their lives.

It seems to be based on a variant of the {{wp|Oranda}} {{wp|goldfish}} known as Azuma Nishiki (東錦), bearing a similar coloration to {{wp|shubunkin}} goldfish. The horn part may be based on Matsya, an avatar that the Hindu god {{wp|Vishnu}} assumed, which is sometimes depicted as a fish with a horn.

Seaking is a combination of ''sea'' and ''king''. Additionally, it may be a pun on "sinking".
Seaking is a combination of ''sea'' and ''king''.


Azumao may be based on 小豆鱒 ''azukimasu'' ({{wp|rock cod}}) and 魔王 ''ma-ō'' (devil king). It may also be taken to literally mean 東王 ''azuma-ō'' (east king). Additionally, 東錦 ''azuma nishiki'' is a kind of goldfish and could be combined with 王 ''ou'' (king), as a compliment to Goldeen's "queenliness".
