Some of them grow to 12 feet across. That's bigger than a grand piano, and it's just floating around, eating plankton and stuff. They are pretty awesome animals, I have to say.
Which is why perhaps Mantine seems a little underwhelming. He's big and has special defense like no one's business, but as a type he's extremely weak to electric, and isn't even Gyarados. They have the same typing, so I'd pick Gyarados every time. And then Mantine doesn't add anything to its base, besides being a little cuter and having a pouty fat-face mouth.
A manta ray could've been done more scarily, or more majestically, but I guess Mantine will have to do.
Overall: 6/10
Dont forget the Remoraid-gun underneat its wings
ReplyDeleteActually, manta rays can grow to almost twice what you say, up to 23ft. Which is pretty neat.
