==Biology==
==Biology==
Kingdra is a large, seahorse-like Pokémon with a tightly curled tail. It is covered in blue scales except for its yellow, compact belly scales. There are thin spines with a single branch atop its head and thin, white fins under its cheeks. Its thin snout is powerful, allowing squirts of water jets with devastating power to be fired. Two-pronged fins extend slightly past its cheeks. On its back is a white fin supported by thin, blue spines similar to the ones on its head.

On its back is a white fin supported by thin, blue spines similar to the ones on its head.


The yawn of a sleeping Kingdra is powerful enough to create undercurrents capable of destroying small ships. Should it decide to emerge from the depths of the ocean, Kingdra's strength can create large whirlpools and sea-born tornadoes on the surface. Because of its immense power, Kingdra often hibernates deep in uninhabited areas of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}} to rest and build up its energy. When a storm arrives, Kingdra is said to awaken and wander about in search of prey.
The yawn of a sleeping Kingdra is powerful enough to create undercurrents capable of destroying small ships. Should it decide to emerge from the depths of the ocean, Kingdra's strength can create large whirlpools and waterspouts on the surface. Because of its immense power, Kingdra often hibernates deep in uninhabited areas of the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}} to build up its energy, usually at the bottom of the seas. When a storm arrives, Kingdra is said to awaken and wander about in search of prey. Kingdra's awakening can cause tornadoes. It is known to have fierce battles with {{p|Dragonite}} whenever they meet. Kingdra's gleaming scales are gifted to royals.

[[File:Juan Kingdra Adventures.png|thumb|right|200px|Kingdra in Pokémon Adventures]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Silver}}'s {{p|Seadra}} evolved into Kingdra when he traded her to {{adv|Gold}} for {{p|Poliwhirl}}, which also [[Polibo|evolved]] in ''[[PS109|Ampharos Amore]]'' but wasn't seen until ''[[PS111|Tyranitar War]]''. The two then traded back, so that each would have their original, though evolved, Pokémon. She was then used in his battle with Gold in the ruins of [[Ecruteak City]], where she defeated {{DL|Gold (Adventures)|Sudobo}} after being switched in. He also uses her to climb waterfalls.
 
In ''[[PS123|Debonaire Dragonair]]'', [[Clair]] of the [[Blackthorn Gym]] also has a Kingdra where it was seen following its Trainer as they approached the Dragon's Den.
 
[[Juan]] also has a Kingdra which he used it to assist {{adv|Ruby}} and {{adv|Sapphire}} in their training.

[[File:Goh Kingdra.png|thumb|250px|Kingdra in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Kingdra made its debut in ''[[M03|Spell of the Unown: Entei]]'', where it was one of the illusory Pokémon [[Molly Hale]] created in her dream world through the {{OBP|Unown|M03}}. It was Molly's first Pokémon during her {{pkmn|battle}} against {{an|Misty}}, where it quickly defeated {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}}.
Kingdra made its main series debut in ''[[EP216|Dueling Heroes]]'', under the ownership of {{OBP|Christopher|EP216}}, who used it to compete in the [[Whirl Cup]]. It lost to {{AP|Totodile}} in the first match after he plugged up Kingdra's snout while it used {{m|Hydro Pump}}, causing excess water to build up inside of it, thus sending it flying across the stadium.
In ''[[EP252|Fangs for Nothin']]'', [[Clair]] used a Kingdra in her [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against {{Ash}}. It faced off against {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{AP|Noctowl}}, defeating the latter. In ''[[EP254|Better Eight Than Never]]'', Kingdra was later used in the [[rematch]], going up against {{AP|Snorlax}} and eventually being defeated.
In ''[[JN088|Looking Out for Number Two!]]'', [[Goh]] caught a {{DL|List of Goh's Pokémon|Kingdra}} as part of his second [[Project Mew]] [[Field Research|Trial Mission]].
====Minor appearances====
A Kingdra appeared in ''[[PK09|Snorlax Snowman]]''.
In ''[[The Legend of Thunder!]]'', a Kingdra was at a [[Pokémon Center]].
In ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', a {{OBP|Manaphy|M09}} {{pkmn|Egg}} bounced off a Kingdra's head while adrift in the ocean.
Multiple Kingdra appeared in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''.
A Kingdra appeared in ''[[XY024|An Undersea Place to Call Home!]]''.

The two then traded back, so that each would have his original, though evolved, Pokémon. She was then used in his battle with Gold in the ruins of [[Ecruteak City]], where she defeated {{DL|Gold (Adventures)|Sudobo}} after being switched in. Silver also used her to {{m|Waterfall|climb waterfalls}}.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Kingdra is based on a {{wp|weedy sea dragon}}, but still shares many characteristics with regular {{wp|seahorse}}s. The fact that it dwells on the sea floor while creating whirlpools may be based on the mythical monster {{wp|Charybdis}}. Its secondary {{type|Dragon}} may be a reference to a Japanese name for seahorses, 竜の落し子 ''tatsu-no-otoshigo'', which means "dragon's child", and to the legends of {{wp|Ryūjin}} and East Asian dragons, where they are said to bear power over the seas of the world, live on the floors of deep bodies of water, and are also known for their weather like ascensions into the heavens.
Kingdra seems to be based on a {{wp|seahorse}} and the {{wp|common seadragon|weedy seadragon}}. Its {{t|Dragon}} type and {{pkmn|category}} may be a reference to the Japanese word for seahorse, ''tatsu-no-otoshigo'' (dragon's child), which is derived from the myth that a seahorse that lives for a century will transform into a {{wp|dragon}}. The fact that it dwells on the seafloor while creating {{wp|whirlpool}}s may be a reference to {{wp|Ryūjin}}, a Japanese sea deity, or {{wp|Charybdis}}, a sea monster in Greek mythology. Its ability to shoot {{wp|cephalapod ink|ink}} is reminiscent of a {{wp|squid}}, and the shape of its snout and {{a|Sniper}} Ability are reminiscent of a {{wp|water gun}}.
