Mantine (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

→‎Trivia: Out-of-date = no longer notable. I would just remove the stats and evolutions lines, but then that leaves it with just "Flying-type Gen 2 Pokemon that are version exclusive", which is flimsier than I suspect we want in this type of trivia.

* Mantine can be seen as a parallel to {{p|Skarmory}}. Both of them are {{type|Flying}} {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}}. Mantine is exclusive to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Gold|s}} and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|HeartGold|s}}, while Skarmory is exclusive to {{game3|Gold and Silver|Pokémon Silver|s}} and {{game3|HeartGold and SoulSilver|SoulSilver|s}}. Their base [[Statistic|stats]] are identical prior to gen VII, with only the physical and special stats switched. Furthermore, neither of the two had any evolutions in Gold and Silver.
* Despite the fact that Mantine evolve from Mantyke in the presence of a {{p|Remoraid}}, Remoraid has not been present on any of Mantine's sprites in the main series of games since Generation IV, in which this evolution method was introduced. This may be due to fact that the Remoraid used for evolution doesn't disappear after Mantine evolves from Mantyke.
