Mantyke (Japanese: ???? Tamanta) is a dual-type Water/Flying baby Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

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.
