Manaphy, the legendary Prince of the Sea, is the first of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl's “event” Pokémon, obtainable only by using a secret code in Pokémon Ranger and sending a special egg to your Diamond and Pearl cartridges. As adorable and squishy as he looks, this prince packs a serious punch, with incredible, balanced stats and a solid pool of attacks. Manaphy's signature move, Heart Swap, swaps any stat modifications with those of the foe, allowing Manaphy to steal boosts and transfer debuffs. As awesome as he is, is Manaphy worth playing through Pokémon Ranger for? We'll leave that up to you.
