The purpose of Seaking in the games, anime, and manga, as with all other Pokémon, is to battle both wild Pokémon—untamed creatures encountered while the player passes through various environments—and tamed Pokémon owned by ]s.<ref name=ign> ''Ign.com''.

| The "sea" in Seaking's name refers to the fact that it is a water-inhabiting Pokémon. "King" is probably a reference to its unevolved form's name, ] (a ] of "gold" and "queen"). Hence, its name means "king of the sea." Its name was originally going to be "Neptune". Its Japanese name refers to {{nihongo|''azumanishiki''|東錦}} for one kind of "]" and {{nihongo|''ō''|王}} for "king". | |||
| ==Biological characteristics== | |||
| Seaking resembles a ], and it is generally thought of as being a beautiful Pokémon. | |||
| When the ] spawning season arrives, these Pokémon swim powerfully up rivers, creeks and waterfalls. They do this in large groups, turning the river a brilliant vermillion color. To attract a female Seaking, the males will woo them with courtship dances. During the spawning season, male Seaking have a more beautiful coloration. | |||
| Once the male Seaking finds a mate, he will carve a nest out of boulders in a stream using his thick horn. This nest is ideal for stopping its eggs from washing down stream. | |||
| Seaking are very parental Pokémon. They are very protective of their eggs. The male and female will take turns patrolling the nest and protecting the eggs. This guarding period can last several months. | |||
| ==In the video games== | |||
| Seaking is available by fishing in all the Pokémon RPGs. Seaking can be found by fishing in rivers, usually not seas or oceans. It can also be obtained by evolving Goldeen at level 33. | |||
| In '']'', wild Seaking can be caught by fishing in the ]. | |||
| Seaking lacks any especially high stats. Its Attack stat is somewhat high. Its Special Defense and Hit Points are both average, while its Defense and Speed are rather low. | |||
| In ], Seaking is the only Pokémon that is capable of learning Waterfall. However, in all later games, the move is learnable via HM; meaning almost any Water-type Pokémon can learn it. Goldeen and Seaking, however, can still learn it naturally, making them one of the few Pokémon that can learn an HM move by leveling-up (others include ] and ], who can both learn the HM ''Fly'' in level up). | |||
| ==In other media== | |||
| Seaking has made various appearances in the Pokémon anime, usually with small roles or cameos. (Its most notable appearance was the episode Hook, Line and Stinker, in which a Seaking-catching competition very similar to the bug-catching competition took place. The winner was whoever caught the heaviest Seaking; in the episode a tie was broken with a battle between the Pokémon used by the trainers to catch these Seaking.) In the ], Seaking has appeared in the ''Jungle'' set, ''Base Set 2'', ''Gym Heroes'', ''Neo Revelations'', ''Aquapolis'', ''EX Ruby & Sapphire'' and ''EX Deoxys''. | |||
