Mantine

Mantine in the anime

A recurring Mantine featured across the Where Are You Going, Eevee? shorts, rescuing Eevee after it was knocked off a boat by a passing Wailord and later teaching it to Mantine Surf before parting ways in Alola. The same Mantine appeared in the main series in Alola, Alola!, where it helped Sandy and Lana with Mantine Surfing before being captured and later rescued from Team Rocket.

Mantine on cards

Mantine's earliest card was a 2000 Neo Genesis Common illustrated by Ken Sugimori, followed by a Neo Destiny printing illustrated by Yukiko Baba. Dragon Frontiers gave it a Delta Species treatment illustrated by Sumiyoshi Kizuki, who also illustrated its earlier Skyridge card, and its Mega Evolution era printing appears in that set's own base release, illustrated by Shimaris Yukichi.
