Name: Desert Tuna Rank: E Genus: Fish (Tuna) Attribute: Sand, Ocean Traits: Fish (Medium), Desert Dweller
Description:
A Desert Tuna is a special mutation of fish-type monster that can survive, no, cannot prosper properly if they are not in a location equal to a desert... is what they are imaging, but Desert Tunas and their evolutions are perfectly fine in environments that normal fish-types find pleasant.

Desert Tunas form cliques with themselves and their evolved stages. The Tunas act as soldiers for the evolved stages, and are at the bottom of their social hierarchy. They respond to the species with the highest rank, which goes from, lowest to highest, the Desert King Tuna, then the Desert Shark, the Desert Killer Shark, for finally, their main commander, the Desert Big Whale.
Unlike their evolved species, the Desert Tuna's flesh is extremely tasty, but even when looking away from the fact that this is a relatively new species, there are not many in the fishing industry too keen on fishing these creatures. They do tend to leave larger-than-cannon-ball-sized holes in both ships and people.
Appearance:
As their name suggests, Desert Tunas are large fishes, with relatively the same appearance as regular tuna. The differences are that the Desert Tuna have desert-colored scales, and they have a pair of legs that they use to travel across dry land. They are big enough to reach a grown adult to their chest.
Abilities:
Danger rank: E- / E+ (whether in the desert or not)
Rarity rank: D-
Desert Tuna attacks are simple, yet painful. Their strength lies in their great ramming power, which it is capable of doing in both water and on land.
Other than that, the Desert Tuna lacks methods for fighting off enemies on its own. However, since Desert Tuna travels in groups, even this simple strategy can lead to a world of hurt if one is not careful. They are easy to fish up though.
Alf's comment: I love to fish, but these creatures are bad news for any fishermen with respect and pride for their boats.
Garami's comment: Hahaha... (Better be quiet as a dead man about the fact that it was drawing those guys that made me not part of the dead anymore...)
