Relicanth

First Appearances

The girl excitedly clutched the capsule and grinned at her parents.

"My own Pokémon? For real?" she exclaimed.

"Sure thing, kiddo," her father replied. He kneeled down. "How about you open the Poké Ball and let it out? Press that button there," he instructed. The girl obliged and stared as her birthday present emerged.

Then she frowned.

"...What is that?" she asked.

"A Relicanth!" Her mother smiled.

"They're really rare," her father added, handing her a leash and collar. "Why don't you take it for a walk?"

"It's a fish," she said. The Pokémon quietly waved a fin at her.
