Octillery

Octillery (Japanese オクタン, Okutan?, Okutank in the original Japanese versions) is a fictional species of Pokémon in the Pokémon franchise.

Octillery's name is most likely a combination of octopus (Oc) and artillery (tillery), due to the attacks it can learn that usually end with beam and other similar suffixes.

It is probably the same with Okutank, except with 'tank' instead of 'artillery'.

Although Octillery is more powerful than its evolved form, Remoraid, it is also much, much slower. However, it can now learn moves like Sludge Bomb, Giga Impact, and even Flash Cannon. It is the only known Pokémon so far to learn Octazooka via level up, though there are a few others that can learn the move via breeding.

Characteristics
Octillery is a octopus Pokémon with eight tentacles. Its body is red, its nose is elongated, and the suction cups on its tentacles are yellow along with two bumps on its head. Its eyes are always half-closed and are a pure onyx shade. The bumps on the female Octillery's head are much smaller as are the suction cups.

Although Octillery is more powerful than its evolved form, Remoraid, it is also much, much slower. However, it can now learn moves like Sludge Bomb, Giga Impact, and even Flash Cannon. It is the only known Pokémon so far to know Octazooka.

Shiny Octillery's body is a tan color while its suction cups and bumps are a pale yellow.

Not much is known about this Pokémon's diet, but it probably feeds on fish or algea.
