For a very critical reason, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all future :+fav:ers and :+devwatch:ers of my works. :D :D :D

EDIT 05242010: Changed the name of the final form from Delphigeist to Delfigeist. See Delfigeist's page for details.

After Orcloud comes its evolved form, Phantorca, the Sealeo-Wailmer/Wailord of my hypothetical region.

Like Orcloud, Phantorca is based on orcas and the myth of ghost ships, giving it its unique Ghost/Water typing. With its bodily fog receding a bit, Phantorca shows a sturdy underbelly, bringing it closer to its ghost ship origin. This allows Phantorca to use the moves Take Down and Body Slam. With its mouth finally exposed, showing a couple of sharp protruding fangs, it can now use Bite as well. It retains its ability, Fog Blanket, since it still is literally blanketed in fog.

Flavor Text: Fog Blanket. Covers the field in fog.

Upon entrance of Phantorca in the battle field, its Fog Blanket ability reduces the Accuracy of all Pokémon except for itself until the weather is changed. In addition to this, Phantorca and its partner in double battles will have increased Evasion as well. Specifically, all the other battling Pokémon affected by Fog Blanket will get reduced Accuracy equal to getting Sand-Attacked, while Phantorca and its partner, if in a double battle, will gain Evasion equivalent to using one Double Team move. Note that Phantorca does not get any Accuracy reduction since it has adapted to the fog it produces, but it still is susceptible to other Accuracy-reducing moves and abilities. Changing the weather only removes the reduction in Accuracy. Phantorca and its double-battle partner will still retain the Evasion boost as long as Fog Blanket had been activated. In double battles, it would be wise if Phantorca's partner knows moves that 'never misses' like Aerial Ace and Swift.

Phantorca shares the same stat total with Sealeo, as their evolution lines are related. Again as with Orcloud and Spheal, Phantorca does not have any similar stat points with Sealeo. Instead, Phantorca mimics stat similarities with Wailmer and Wailord. The Generation III resident whales both have monster HP and equal points in Attack and Special Attack, to which Phantorca does not disappoint. This middle-stage Mist Whale has a high 115 HP, typical of bulky Ghost-types, and 65 points in Attack, Defense, and Special Attack. Much faster than Sealeo's 45 Speed is Phantorca's 55. All these good things going on for Phantorca has a price to pay: a measly 45 Special Defense [a very small evolutionary increase from Orcloud's 35]. Indeed, Phantorca's offensive and bulky. Just don't throw Special-based moves in its way!

Phantorca, Fog Blanket is mine!
