Description Benositops - the Sea Cow Pokémon (Water/Ice)

"Feeding Dewgong the first ever Berry to be restored from a fossil, the Aglea Berry, triggered its evolution into Benositops. The extinction of this Berry may explain why this evolution had disappeared."
"Benositops used to thrive in cold northern seas, until the Pearl Clan inhabited what is now Snowpoint and foraged the most important Berry of its diet to extinction."
"Its long tusk, too brittle for fighting, is used to sense many properties of the water it swims in, making it very helpful in studying what keeps ocean ecosystems in balance."

This is the shiny of a new evolved form for Dewgong for my Fakemon project Fang and Claw, based mostly on Steller's sea cow (Hydrodamalis gigas), an extinct sirenian larger than any around today that was hunted to extinction by 1768. However, the name and asymmetrical tusks come from Odobenocetops, a cetacean that lived around Peru and Chile from the late Miocene to early Pliocene.
