The height stat isn't always height, sometimes it's length. Because if a Pokemon is short, but long, how long it is becomes more important information to impart than how high its body reaches off the ground while standing.

That's literally not true though. Wailord's body weighs almost 400 kg.

Also consider that it's not like the inside of its body is a void filled with a gas that's lighter than air. It's a goddamned sea creature.

Are you literally arguing about whether a Pokemon can literally float in the air when literally nothing about it indicates that it can do that? Just because they animate Water Pokemon swimming in mid-air does not mean that they can do that. There is zero evidence suggesting that Wailord can do that; all of its Pokedex entries are about how it lives in the sea, including how it dives and breaches.

400kg and 14.5m height

I'm guessing it's 2 times longer than its height then its volume is about 4800m3 and density is 0.0835kg/m3. Density of air is approximately 1.225 kg/m3 so Wailor should float like helium balloon.

Because even in real life the body type determines how we measure the animal's size.
Snakes and fish are measured by length
Birds and bats are measured by wingspan
Horses are measured by shoulder-height
Now obviously not all of these apply to Pokemon, but the serpentine-shaped Pokemon absolutely are measured by length.

Wailord weighs 398 kilos. The joke about him being light comes from the fact that he's called the Float Whale Pokémon, and he's a fraction of the weight of actual whales. About 1/10 the weight of a killer whale (on the lower end), and about 1/100 the weight of a humpback.

Quoted By: >>44658650 >>44666656

If Wailord's 14.5meter is its length then let's assume its height is something around 2.30 meters (using a 0.16 height to length ratio, the same found in blue whales). Let's assume he's a perfect cylinder because it's the closest shape to his body.
This gives us a volume of roughly 60m^3, for a total density of 398kg / 60m^3 = 6,63 kg/m^3. Air density is 1.225kg/m^3, so not lighter than air, but absurdly light for its size regardless. For comparison, human density is roughly 1000kg/m^3.

Probably not, also breathing in air would cause him to become even lighter and float even faster to the surface.

>>44658692
It would need to inhale 60 tonnes of water to reach enough density to sink.
Also marine mammals don't use swim bladders, they control their buoyancy by taking in air. They're denser than water so they sink rather than float.

This checks out when you compare it to Wailmer too, which is known for taking water into its body on purpose both to spray at people and to affect its ability to bounce on land.

Wailord can sink if it is hollow and the outside skin is much denser than water. That makes sense if its biology is based around sucking in a lot of water given its moves. Also makes sense how the wailmer pail is used to carry and distribute water. The line is just a biological water container.
