Malamar

Malamar appeared in 2013 video game called Pokémon X & Y. Malamar is an Overturning Pokémon. A master hypnotist, Malamar is popular among disreputable people who seek to take advantage of others. It controls opponents with the rhythmic flashing lights that are on its body, then attacks with its sharp-edged fins.

Malamar is a Pokémon that resembles an upside-down squid. Several purple tentacles with bright blue undersides sprout from the top of its head. It has yellow eyes with black sclerae, a dark pink beak-like mouth, and lighter purple eyelids. Its main body is dark purple and has six circular yellow lights on the front and back. There is also a yellow stripe nearly encircling its upper body. Covering its main body is a transparent mantle with two white fins on the bottom that function as legs. On each side of the mantle is a long tentacle with dark pink at the top and white, scythe-like fins at the ends.

Malamar possesses strong hypnotic powers, which it uses to force others to do its bidding. People often utilize this ability for nefarious deeds. It lures prey with the flashing pattern on its body and hypnotic motions, then ensnares them in its tentacles. The prey is then finished off with digestive fluids. Malamar and its pre-evolution, Inkay, are the only known Pokémon that can learn Topsy-Turvy.
