What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why?
Gyarados. It's an absolute beast with Dragon Dance. It's also one of the first Water types, so it has nostalgia on it side.
What's your least favourite Water Pokemon? Why?
Tympole.:\ The damn thing's got boob-ears.
How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
Meh, they're okay, I guess. In my Top 5, I suppose....
Why do you or don't you like the Water Pokemon?
Most of them are pretty good at fighting, and most have pretty good designs. I say most because, well.....Tympole.:\
If Pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would train your Pokemon?
In tall grass and water, duh. :p

What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why? I have a lot of favorites, actually, but I guess Gyarados would be my big one. I'm also a fan of Suicune. :D OH AND KINGDRA. AND SHARPEDO.
What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why? I've never really like Psyduck or Politoed. They just don't appeal to me so much, I guess. :/
How well do you like the Water Pokemon? I do as much as any other type. Water Pokemon are really... populous, though. Not sure if that's good or bad.
Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon? -shrug-
If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon? I'd probably actually just go swimming every day and mess around because it'd be fun. :3

What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why?
Though it's Walrein that's on my main team, my personal favorite is Starmie because it's fast, powerful and can learn some pretty awesome attacks. Plus, it's a purple star with a jewel in the center.
What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
Any Water/Ground types, since their only weakness is a type that I rarely ever train and they're such a pain in the butt to defeat. Oh, and Magikarp as well. Magikarp's vacant stare just creeps me out:/
How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
I like them enough so there's a spot for one on every team I make, whether for competitive or in-game purposes.
Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
IMO, it's a very useful type to have, especially since as I mentioned I don't use Grass-types and Water works well against those Rock and Ground Pokemon.

Go hunting for wild Geodude, Growlithe, Diglett, etc and beat them.

Azumarill, no doubt. It's been an awesome team member on every run of Emerald I have done, and it was my first shiny, too~

What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
Corsola. I've never found it to be useful, and it was really annoying in the anime.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
Favorite type, bro.

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
They've got pretty decent stats, water is super effective against a fair few types, and they are really really useful.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
Um, I think I'd work with them on moves and such by practicing battling and various trials... and I'd take them to the beach a lot. Yeah.

What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why?
Vaporeon of course~! Because it is the awesomest Pokemon ever, it is so strong and looks cool.
What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
Probably Tympole or its evolutions because they are all really ugly and are bad rip offs of Poliwag and evolutions.
How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
I love Water type Pokemon, they are my favourite type.
Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
I like water types because they are all really strong and almost all of them look awesome.
If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
I would train them against other trainers in the ocean and rivers. And even on land by creating an orb of water in the air like in the movie that Manaphy stars in and using that.

What's your favorite Water Pokemon? Why?
I'm partial to several: Corsola, Surskit, Starmie, and Spheal. Can't really say one is my favorite.

What's your least favorite water pokemon? Why?
Psyduck, maybe? I dunno.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon? Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
I like them pretty well. They're surprisingly diverse for how many there are and lots of them have fun designs, but some (like Psyduck) just don't look all that great.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
I'd want to live near some body of water because I'd want them to have access to it or to live in it if they were totally aquatic. Then they could whatever they wanted and train themselves and I wouldn't have to. :D

Feraligatr, since it's reliable, strong and it's design is cool.

Feebas, since it was sooo hard to find in the third Gen!

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
Well, they are my favourite.

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
Variety of moves, especially Ice/Ground, etc, decent stats, movepool.

Tough one, I'd have to say Starmie is my favourite. Had one in Soul Silver.

What's your least favorite water pokemon? Why?

Palpitoad, don't really hate it....but it looks a bit odd.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?

A lot, I'll usually have one on my team. Surf is a great HM to have too. Three out of the five gens I've picked a water starter first. (Squirtle, Piplup and Oshawott)

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?

They can learn surf which is very helpful, plus they learn many strong moves and overall are quite handy to have on a team.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?

Bring them swimming and go diving with them. I'm usually nervous in water but I think I'd feel safer with a water pokemon to hold on to.

What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why?

Vaporeon, Suicune, Golduck, Dewgong, Ducklett, Samurott, Tirtouga, Kabutops

There are actually way more but I'm mentioning those due to looks, or if I've used them before and they've been a strong part of my team

Honourable mention: Poliwhirl, Kingler, Seaking, Lanturn, Sharpedo, Floatzel, Empoleon, Wartortle, Totodile

What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?

Never been overly fond of: Slowpoke, Shellder, Tentacool, Wooper, Surskit, Wingull, Wailmer, Walrein, Huntail, Gastrodon, Lombre, Panpour (not hugely keen on monkeys), never been keen on Mudkip's line at all, and finally Jellicent cause I'm slightly afraid of jellyfish lol.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?

Pretty well enough, I'd say for every game I play I'd use at least one water type pokémon.

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?

I like them because there's a large variety to choose from and they look pretty cool for the most part. They're also extremely useful for things such as Surf. I don't like them cause a lot remind me of things I'm afraid of lol, like jellyfish and piranhas, and also you pretty much have to rely on them and them alone to take out fire types (cause I don't often use ground/rock pokémon).

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?

I'd take them down to the sea or nearby lakes and train them there, but I wouldn't rely on it, for example most of the ones I like can walk around on land rather than relying on water, so I would walk around with them and train them normally, and if we happened to come across a large area of water, so much the better!

What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why?
-I think either Blastoise or Swampert, but there are too many to choose from so there is probably more than these two.

What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
-Hmm.. probably Slowpoke, just never really liked it.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
-They are my favourite type, along with Electric :)

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
-Dunno, they are just interesting and cool I guess.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon
-Near the sea? I don't know :p

It is the hardest to obtain. I always want challenge
What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
Tentacool. They keep on appearing!

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
Just right.

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
I like water types because I like a lot of water type pokemon, and because they're really useful in the games.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
We'll use bubblebeam together... After I finish brushing in my case.

My favorite Water type is Cloyster -- second favorite overall.
Least favorite is Palpitoad. That thing is a poor attempt at recreating Jigglypuff. IT UGLY!
Water ain't my favorite type, not least favorite, about in the middle.
Now that last question is different. I'd probably just hang at the pool or beach, or go dive into a coral reef. Now THAT would be pretty sweet.

Feraligatr/Bibarel. My favourite Pokemon.
What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
The rest of them. They're not pro at using HMs, well except swampert but he... just doesn't have that oomph to him.
How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
Not the best Pokemon type, although it has it's ups and downs, like every other type.
Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
They're mostly used for Pokedex entries for me. I'm not really a fan.
If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
Let them swim. Then come a few hours later.

Kingler, such an awesome pokemon and super strong.

What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
Luvdisc really annoys me. I just hate its design.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
I'm really not a huge fan of them. I prefer fire/psychic/electric over water.

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
There are always so many, I guess I tend to like what other people dont? Water just isnt very interesting to me, I like fire for example. Maybe it's the color red? I only played pokemon red version lol.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
Like ash does lol. Water guns to hit cans and a lot of swimming.

I love Water types, but my all-time favourite is Golduck.

Kingler, don't like it's appearance.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
They make great HM slaves (especially Bibarel). I teach all my Water-types Surf.

Why do you or don't you like the Water Pokemon?
Water Pokemon are cool! There's nothing I particularly don't like.

If Pokemon was real and you were a Trainer, how would you train Water Pokemon?
I'd make them fill a swimming pool for me and train them... in the water.

What's your favourite Water Pokemon? Why?
I had to think about this one, I generally I have a handful of favorite Water types, and Pokemon has a vast amount of Water Pokemon. But I would have to say Frillish. I started liking it on my 3rd playthrough through BW. It has been very kind to me, being able to tank hits and cripple threats. Though I like the female Frillish more then the male one.

What's your least favourite water pokemon? Why?
Again, such a vast amount of Water Pokemon kept me thinking, though I would have to say Surskit. As much as I love it's evolution, Masquerain, Surskit is such a bother to find and train. It can't really touch anything with it's low BP Bubble so it's really a handful to train. Sure if you breed it it can get STAB Hydro Pump, but it's more of a hassle.

How well do you like the Water Pokemon?
I always have one whether it's In-Game for Surfing or Competitive for FWG core.

Why do you or don't you like the water pokemon?
The Water Type is pretty odd, for some Pokemon it's a gift like Lanturn and Rotom-W, but for others it's a a downfall like Luvdisc and Co.

If pokemon was real and you were a trainer, how would you train water pokemon?
First off they would be very helpful around the house for cleaning and washing, afterwards I can threat them to a warm/cold bath and let them be there for a while. I would also train them so they can be able to produce water in heat and train them in forests for a upper hand against Grass Types.
