how would you type it (other than water, maybe you'd also give it a secondary type) and what stats would it have? would you give it a pre-evolution and/or evolution? discuss anything related to the dolphin pokémon we don't have (;-;) here!

Maybe one based in the chilean dolphin or tonina as it's called here, which is the one in the pic bellow. As in typing it may not look like it, but I would give it Water/Fairy since there's a mythological creature in chilean culture called Cahuelche that is said to look similar than said dolphin.
Spoiler:

As for stats I would put it in the somewhat tanky side, kinda similar to Milotic but with more defense and hp and less sp.def. Also waaaaay slower. No evolution.

HP: 110
Atk: 75
Def: 85
SpAtk: 75
SpDef: 100
Speed: 55
BST:500

Not really sure about its overall design or name, but it's shiny can be a pastel pink, in reference to the pink dolphin from many southamerican rivers that is actually often refered to as tonina as well.
There's also the common dolphin that is well... common! You can even find those in Greece. And speaking about Greece there's a legend that talks about how a crew of pirates were transformed into dolphins after attempting to kidnap Dionysus.
Spoiler:

Also seeing the white-ish coloration in some parts the dolphin in the picture above, it can maybe evolve into a killer whale that isn't actually a whale cut a big ass dolphin, and given the pirate legend and awful name the orca has it can have the Water/Dark or Water/Fighting typing.

Stats for both would go more in the speedy side for common dolphin and more on the physical side for orca

Dolphin:
HP: 70
Atk: 75
Def: 60
SpAtk: 50
SpDef: 60
Speed: 115
BST: 430

Orca:
HP: 90
Atk: 110
Def: 100
SpAtk: 65
SpDef: 60
Speed: 75
BST: 500

I imagine it being Water/Psychic and being able to have an uncanny ability to communicate with humans in its own primitive way. It wouldn’t be much of a bulky Water type but would be equipped with a decent Sp. Attack, Speed, and HP. If it had a pre-evolution, I feel like it would be a little albino calf that is pure Water type spends its time sleeping in a ball to store Psychic energy for its evolution - almost like a Munna.

Then again, if it were part Fairy type is would be weak to Poison... and that makes sense wit how polluted our irl oceans are. Which would be a good ethical message for players.

Gorebyss seems to be based on a pipefish. However, some believe that our anglerfish Pokémon, Lanturn, draws partial inspiration from dolphins—an animal associated with the Greek god of light, Apollo.

Meanwhile I’m here hoping for a psychic/fairy dolphin that has stars on its body similar to constellations and lives high up in space ❤️ Perhaps with a dark blue base coloring, and purple when shiny?

Wow.
WOW.
I've never noticed there not being one.

But I'd think it would be really pretty, like a Milotic.

I'll throw my bets in as well for a psychic/fair or psychic/water type.
Water/ice.

Either way, it'll look totally amazing.
