Pokédex Entry

Pokédex entry "A fierce, deep-sea hunter, this Pokémon is particularly vengeful towards humankind and will tear up fishing nets."

Biology

Physiology

Tubareel is a long, eel-like Pokémon that shares similarities to fish and sharks. It has a medium-dark blue body, with dark blue fins running along the top and bottom  of its body. It has green diamond-like markings running along either side of its body, and has dark blue fins near its head. It has sharp green teeth and green diamond-shaped patterns around its eyes, which are black, with blue pupils.  For a Pokémon of its size, Tubareel seems to have an incredibly narrow body.  Despite this, Tubareel are very strong swimmers, and very agile in the water. These Pokémon are especially vengeful towards humans and will purposefully attempt to rip fishing nets with their teeth, however the reason for their vengefulness is unknown.

Behavior and Habitat

This Pokémon is known to try rip fishing nets on purpose. This behavior has been regarded as an act of vengefulness towards humans.

Trivia

• Prior to 1.2.3, Tubareel, Saidine, and Daikatuna all used Sharpedo's cry.
• Tubareel's similarity to Brainoar (stats etc.) could indicate a close connection, like a rivalry or relation of some kind.
• In earlier versions, Tubareel didn't have fangs or fins along its body and had different markings on its sides.
• To date, Tubjaw and Tubareel still have icons representing their prior designs in-game.

Design Origin

Tubareel appears to be based on several species of deep sea fish and sharks. In particular, it may draw largely from the frilled shark, an eel-like species of deep-sea shark.

Name Origin

Tubareel is a combination of the Portuguese word for shark, tubarão, and eel.
