I recommend you guys try Basculin. It may not look tough but it's actually the strongest water Pokemon I ever used in any game. If you have White, go catch a Minccino and go to Driftveil City. You'll find a guy who will trade you a Basculin with Rock Head. (Teach it Double Edge.)
It's also Adamant, so be sure to teach it phsyical moves! (Like STAB Waterfall.) It's one great Water type Pokemon, trust me on that.
I still tend to associate Water type Pokemon with special attacks. I guess the special and physical moves differentiation introduced in Gen IV hasn't quite seeped into me. xD I prefer special attacking water types, but I'd gladly use even physical ones too if needed.
I would love to join the group as i m a great fan of water type pokemons. As for the question above i use water type HM slaves in most my games but they are also my leads. I prefer to use special attacks rather than physical with my water pokemons.
I'm currently playing with Buizel as my starter in one of the RPs I'm in. It's fun to play with a water type in RPs, but I admit it depends more on the kind of pokémon than the type ^^' It's not like a gameboy game, I mean.
