Wailord (Pokémon): Difference between revisions
Technically, this is fine now since it's no longer the absolute tallest. Removed the line from the biology section as well as being second tallest is not notable.

When it is jumping out of the water, it makes a giant splash due to its large size. It can create shockwaves by breaching and crashing onto the water, which can knock out the opponents. It can dive deep at 10,000 feet (3,000 meters) in one breath. It lives in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}} in large groups called pods. A pod of Wailord travels together in order to search for food, and is able to eat large quantities at one time, such as schools of {{p|Wishiwashi}}. When a Wailmer is attacked by its predators {{p|Sharpedo}} or {{p|Dhelmise}}, its whole pod works to defend it. Wailord is popular due to its immense size. As a result, Wailord-watching is a favorite sightseeing activity in various parts of the world. However, they are known to be driven away by fishermen, so they don't eat too much fish Pokémon. | When it is jumping out of the water, it makes a giant splash due to its large size.
