Milotic is a special dragon Pokémon that evolves from Feebas under special conditions and was introduced in the third generation games.

Information

Milotic evolves from Feebas when it is leveled up with high Beauty. It is an elegant serpent-like Pokémon that is hailed as the most beautiful Pokémon. It has the power to suppress anger and hostility in order to stop fights. When Milotic's body glows pink, it releases a pulsing wave of energy that can calm restless spirits. It is said to live at the bottom of large lakes (actually rising up to calm violent hearts) and has been depicted in many paintings and statues. Its scales are described as rainbow colored and actually change color depending on the viewing angle.

Appearances

Mainstream Games

In all of the color versions from the third generation onwards, Milotic can only be obtained through evolution of Feebas.

Other Games

Milotic appears in Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire as well as Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Teams, where it can only be obtained by evolving Feebas. In Pokémon Trozei!, it appears at Endless Level 71, Forever Level 21, Pair Trozei and Mr. Who's Den. In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Darkness, it can rarely be found on the first twenty-four basement floors of Lake Afar.

Other Appearances

• Milotic have been seen in episodes of the Pokémon anime from the Hoenn episodes onwards, in the ownership of trainers such as Juan, Lucy, Wallace and Palmer.
• Near the end of the Ruby/Sapphire arc of the Pokémon Adventures manga, Ruby's Feebas (which he had driven off and called ugly) evolved into a Milotic after he had acknowledged its inner beauty by giving it the Hyper Rank ribbon, and it remained on Ruby's team as one of his main Pokémon. Throughout the arc Ruby had been seeking Milotic because of how beautiful it was (and perfect for the Pokémon Contests he loved), which adds a subtext of irony to his treatment of Feebas.

Trivia

• Its name may be a play on "melodic" and "Milo", as in the renowned artwork "Venus de Milo", which is seen as beautiful in its own way.
• It acts as a third generation counterpart to Gyarados and has been noted to possibly be seen as a Contest version of Gyarados.
