[OVERVIEW]
Besides its average Attack stat, Seaking's stats are mediocre, making it very easy to outspeed and KO. Even with its unique ability for a Water-type in Lightning Rod, Seaking finds itself outclassed by Lanturn. Lanturn has higher overall bulk, a secondary typing, and access to Volt Switch. Furthermore, Seaking is also outclassed by other physical Water-types such as Floatzel, Kabutops, and Carracosta with their higher offensive presence, ability to set up, overall versatility, the first two's higher Speed, the last two's secondary typing, and Carracosta's better bulk.

[SET COMMENTS]
Seaking tries to serve as a switch-in for Electric-types like Togedemaru and Manectric and utilize its access to Knock Off to cripple foes and solid coverage in an attempt to KO foes with a super effective move. However, this often fails due to Seaking's relatively poor offensive presence and is better accomplished by other Water-types like Lanturn, Floatzel, and Carracosta.
