Mantyke (Japanese: タマンタ Tamanta) is a dual-type Water/Flying baby Pokémon.
It evolves into Mantine when leveled up with a Remoraid in the party.
Biology
Mantyke resembles a manta ray. It has a round body with wide, flat fins. Its back is dark blue, while its underside is light blue. There are two red spots with white outlines and a light blue, curved line on its back. These markings give the overall impression of a smiling face and vary slightly in each region. It has two long, curving antennae on top of its head and black eyes with eyelash-like markings underneath. The antennae are used to sense ocean currents. Mantyke is a friendly Pokémon that can be found swimming near the ocean's surface with schools of Remoraid.
In the anime
Major appearances
Mantyke made its debut appearance in Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea. Jack Walker uses the Capture Styler on Mantyke in order to use it to help him reach the temple. It is also shown swimming with a Mantine, presumably its parent. Multiple of them also appeared in the same movie.
Several Mantyke appeared in Cheers on Castaways Isle!.
Minor appearances
A Mantyke appeared in Following A Maiden's Voyage! during the beginning narration of the episode.
Mantyke made its next appearance in the anime in One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!, used by Ash in the second leg of the Pokémon Triathlon.
