Seaking (アズマオウ, Azumaō, Azumao in original Japanese language versions) are one of the Template:Pokenum fictional species of Pokémon creatures from the multi-billion-dollar Pokémon media franchise—a collection of video games, anime, manga, books, trading cards, and other media created by Satoshi Tajiri. 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 Pokémon trainers.
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, Goldeen (a portmanteau 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 azumanishiki (東錦) for one kind of "goldfish" and ō (王) for "king".
