Octillery

Octillery is a red, octopus-like Pokémon and the evolved form of Remoraid, classified as the Jet Pokémon. It uses its suction-cup tentacles to ensnare prey and anchor itself to rocks or its opponents, then shoots water or ink from its mouth at high pressure. Known for hiding in holes and crevices in rocky seabeds, it is a tenacious ambush predator, and its surprising evolutionary link to the fish-like Remoraid long puzzled observers due to their drastically different anatomy.

The Japanese name オクタン (Okutan) derives from 'octo-/octopus' (Latin/Greek for eight, referencing its octopus form) combined with 'tank' (タン), suggesting a heavily armored, artillery-like creature. The English name 'Octillery' is a portmanteau of 'octopus' and 'artillery,' reflecting both its cephalopod body and its ability to fire water like a cannon. Both names emphasize the octopus motif fused with weaponry imagery.
