Template:Infobox AnimalThe Risso's Dolphin is a rare, deep-sea dolphin that makes an appearance in both Endless Ocean games.
In-Game Description
"This grey dolphin has a large rounded head. As it grows older, its skin gradually becomes white. It has no teeth in its upper jaw, and sometimes no teeth at all.
It swims the seas leisurely in groups of up to several dozen.
[White Scars]
Adults look white because of countless scars on their skin. All dolphins and whales are injured at some point, but their scars usually fade with time.
This species' injuries leave permanent white scars which gradually turn their entire body white as they get older."
Location
Endless Ocean
A small pod of these dolphins are found in the Abyss, in the Secret Cave.
Endless Ocean 2
These can be found in the Zahhab Region Depths. One shows up late-game that the player can befriend.
Behavior
These dolphins can be found swimming in a close-knit but small pod at very deep depths. They like the sound of the Sea Whistle.
Notes
- These dolphins were named after the scientist who first formed a comprehensive description of it, Antoine Risso.
- This dolphin is the only species in its genus, grampus.
- Among Taiwanese fishermen, this dolphin is commonly known as the Monk Dolphin.
