What are your favorite Water-type shiny colorations?

I like Starmie and Relicanth's shinies as mentioned earlier, but here's some of my personal faves.



I think the mix of red and white on Clawitzer is pretty cool, and given I have a shiny male Clauncher in X I should try and raise him into one someday. Greninja probably has to be the best-looking shiny starter with that black/red color scheme. As for Psyduck and Corsola, I always think the blue suits them well.
Shiny Clawitzer looks very cool, and I can't believe I forgot about shiny Greninja, it really looks amazing. I like regular Corsola and shiny Corsola together, with the pink and baby blue, they'd look cute in a double battle.

I really love this one. The black, as you mentioned, suits Greninja to a tee. Perhaps the red neckband could have been green, but red is also good enough. This makes me wish previous water starters had these shiny colours.
Green tongue sounds kinda creepy, but then again, having your tongue wrapped around your neck is already creepy, so. But, I agree, shiny Greninja looks really cool, the colors fit perfectly.

Personally, I don't really like shiny Greninja. :( Black does suit it, but those white spots around its body sort of ruin the feel; would've been great if they were a little less bright. I love shiny Clawitzer, though, and Corsola is just adorable!
Perhaps if the white spots became yellow? That would look really cool.
Shiny Clawitzer is awesome too, and I have to agree that Corsola is simply adorable in turquoise.

I'd like for Milotic and Walrein to get Mega's since Milotic isn't that good and Walrein is one of my favorite pokemon to use in RSE because of XD Gale of Darkness.

Milotic isn't good? :o That's definitely not the impression I got from the battles with Wallace and Cynthia, but I've always be preeeetty bad at training and organizing my teams well anyways, so that probably has a part to play in it too 8D

In any case, I definitely think Milotic should get a mega evolution. It's always kinda been the counterpart to Gyarados, and I'd just love to see what they could do with it designwise. And I strongly agree with Walrein too, simply because it just feels like it kinda lacks a "finish" of sorts. The likelihood that the two of them are gonna get mega evolutions is also pretty high, considering they're Hoenn Pokemon, so I'm definitely holding out for it :D
Not removing this from my signature!

I can see how Milotic can be considered a counterpart to Gyarados, and the fact that we may take hours to find a Feebas tile and fish it up, it could be much more rewarding if we get a Mega Milotic. Milotic is an annoying Pokémon, because of Marvel Scale, Toxic, Recover, Hydro Pump and Blizzard (aka the most annoying in-game moveset ever) and Wallace gets a good defence covered up by Milotic's awesome Defense stats. A mega evolution is probably just going to capitalise on this and make an unassailable wall for Wallace (his name even says it: Wall Ace). This is considering before the Elite Four you're not going to get many options to buff up your team.

Well, considering we already have Mega Blaziken, I'm really hoping that the other two starters will get mega forms, so maybe we'll get Mega Swampert.

I can see Milotic getting a mega too, it is after all Wallace's signature Pokemon, so it would be a nice way to showcase it, like they did with Siebold and his Mega Gyarados.

I don't who I want to see getting a mega though, because there are so many Water-types in Hoenn. If you look through the E4 list though, there are high chances that we'd get to see a Mega Walrein.

Dat Glacia. Dat Walrein. Especially dat Sheer Cold after I used 4 Calm Minds. I don't... I don't.... I don't...

Please. That would be just so much troll. 220 HP... And nobody can beat it. Besides, give it Rest... and she will finish the rest.

How do you guys think Swampert's hypothetical mega form would look like? I mean, what kind of additional body features would you expect?

Yeah, I'd love to see Mega Swampert, too. I've seen a few fan art before based around it, and they all looked amazing; if it wound up looking something like them, it would be pretty great. As for Mega Sceptile, I'd really like it to be part dragon-type. It does remind you of dragon, does it? So, it'd make sense if it actually became one. :P I know that this is only the water-type, so sorry for going overboard, haha. Hope you guys don't mind!

Your nickname:Colt

Partner Pokemon:Empoleon

Reason for Joining the Club:I really love water types. Water types are just awesome. When I first joined Pokemon, my first partner was Empoleon in the Sinnoh region (yeah, I started late). Another reason, my sig says I have joined this other water club, it seems like it is long dead. So I decided to join a "reincarnation". :)

What are your favorite Water-type shiny colorations: Empoleon, the aqua is quite awesome and Vaporeon. I think the pink just suits it very well. :D Oh yeah, and Mudkip. (Pink is the manliest color! >:D)

Can't believe I didn't think of Swampert. I'm pretty certain it's gonna get one, otherwise it'd be kiiinda unfair, and definitely make people lean more towards picking Torchic than any. But as for the design; I'm definitely not sure. Usually the mega forms don't alter the appearance much, but rather adds onto the designs, so I'm thinking they're gonna be doing something with either the fins, or the part of the back that the fins don't occupy. It's honestly hard to say, since creativity in regards to designs can go in many ways, so we can't really expect anything, but I'm definitely looking forward to seeing it haha. Swampert is definitely my favourite of the Hoenn starters, so I really hope it is gonna get one :D

+1 to Swampert fans. SOON WE WILL CONQUER THE WORLD

Mm, I get your point about the speedy Torchic but if they limit it to an event like last time, then I don't see why it would be unfair. Besides, Blaziken already has got his Dream World ability...

But, another point being friggin Sceptile and Swampert could become OVERLORDS overnight if they get a mega. Sceptile could harness more Speed and Special Attack, whilst Swampert would be walled up with extra Defense and Special Defense. Swampert specifically could renew it's reputation back from BW, and there could even be whole Rain Teams set up over him.

On that point, do you guys ever go on Water type-only runs? I'm sure I could go on one in ORAS because Pelipper is a good flying type... Swampert the obvious choice for starter, maybe even Ludicolo, because yolo.

I've done water mono runs on all of the games, even the side ones. Water types are op because they can learn a crap ton of moves. I'm pretty sure they have some of the best typings too.

Not mono runs, but I usually end up with a couple of Water-types in my in-game team. I had Carracosta + Seismitoad, Swanna + Samurott + Jellicent, Greninja + Lapras. They're just so versatile, and very useful in-game. I mean, you have to have a Surfer, right?

Back in the olden days of RSE, I recall having an all Water-type team. :) It won't hurt to do it again. ^_^

I agree that Water types are kind of versatile. They have few advantages and weaknesses, so they could easily accommodate a second typing without much problem. The good part is many of these combinations are given to good Pokémon, too. That and water Pokémon learn Ice-type moves without fail. Good way to combat it's own main weakness, yeah?

I love Water-types due to the variety of roles they can play in a team, and also the type itself isn't very heavy on weaknesses plus it's the type with the second most types paired with it, after Flying. Also, the fact they can learn Ice-type moves also helps counter a lot of stuff given how many Pokemon have weaknesses to Ice.

Water-types will always be my fave for various reasons like these.

I was about to mention Mega Swampert. He looks bigger and tougher in the leak. Can't wait for the release.
Oh yeah, guys I mean have you seen Swampert now? Something tells me Swampert is totally into fitness... I mean, I expected Swampert's design to be something even more derpy lel
