Can anyone suggest a good, solid water-type Pokemon and movesets for Battle Revolution or online play? No starters please!! Thank you! :)


EDIT: I suppose starters are fine... I just like using "everyday" pokes! :D

Damn. Well, there goes Swampert. I cannot stress how good he is. Also, Miltotic is solid.

You know what? My cousin plays diamond. He's a rookie, but since he's young, it doesn't matter. He legally caught a Feebas, Female, and BOLD. I took it. I don't even like Milotic, but couldn't pass up this opportunity. He will forgive me.

Wow...I accidentally turned off my game when I got a beldum egg with near-perfect IVs...my sister will pay lol...

As for water types, kingdra is an option. Bulky? no, but it's a nice sweeper.

And don't forget blastoise, one of the most hardcore pokemon ever.

EDIT: No starters? MAN!

Hmm, I *may* use Blastoise... I just said no starters because I prefer using "common" pokemon, haha. So Swampert's good too, what about Feraligatr??

Sometimes something unpredicted is nice. And Slowking get's Nasty Plot, as well as Trick Room:

Slowking @:Leftovers
Trait: Own Tempo
Calm Nature
Nasty Plot/Curse
Trick Room
Psychic/Zen Headbutt (Hey, he get's stab with Psychic).
Surf/Waterfall/Ice Beam/Thunder Wave/Focus Blast. Ah, but so many options for a Uu Pokemon. Use Curse with Zen Headbutt and Waterfall. If you decide to go with Nasty Plot, Focus Blast 4th Gen Water Fall for 4th gen (You notice that you're not going to be using ALL these attacks, right)? Psychic with Nasty Plot, and supportive moves are self-explanatory.

Slowking hasn't worked so well for me...there's always starmie, the evil star of darkness, and boltbeaming.

Gastrodon?

Gastrodon @:Leftovers
Trait: Sticky Hold
Bold/Impish/Relaxed/Calm Nature
Mirror Coat
Recover
Surf/Waterfall
Ice Beam. Yeah, Ice covers just about everything Water does, but i'd thought i'd put it in there for those nasty dragons.

More like nasty Grass. But Gastrodon is just a downgraded version of Swampert. If you like it, it is usable.

Maybe I could get a Encore'ing one. Oh never mind, this one caught my eye:

Golduck @: Salac Berry
Trait: Damp
Modest/Timid Nature
Waterfall
Ice Beam
Hypnosis/Yawn
Zen Headbutt. Lol, if he get's to survive, then he's one heck of a sweeper. He outspeed's and get's a Yawn/Hypnosis in.

These are all very good ideas, Anti. Vaporeon can be used:

Vaporeon @:Leftovers
Trait: Water Asorb
Bold Nature
Surf/Waterfall/ice Beam
Curse
Substitute
Baton Pass.

It's UU, a poor man/woman's swampert. It can use haze though, which is cool. It is actually pretty darn good...

Those are all awful moves. Just awful.

lBut you are right. Octillery is a great poke, with a diverse movepool.
