Trivia

  • Phione is the only Pokémon that is obtainable only by breeding a legendary Pokémon.
  • Phione has the same base stats as Glalie.
  • Phione is taller and weighs more than its parent, Manaphy.
  • Phione can be bred not only from Manaphy, but also from a Phione.
  • There was much debate over whether or not Phione is a legendary Pokémon until recently, when Pokémon.com revealed that Phione is indeed legendary.[1] This makes it the legendary with the lowest base stats.

Origin

Phione is possibly based on sea angels.

Name origin

Phione's name may be a corruption of Fiore, which is where Manaphy's egg is found, combined with "clione", the scientific name for sea angels, or "clone", because its sole purpose is to be a pseudo-Manaphy. It's also likely that フィ comes from Template:P2.
