Username/Nickname: Nymphadora.
Partner Pokemon: Slowpoke.
Reason for Joining the Club: Water is one of my most favorite types out there, right beside fire. Plus, most (if not all) water-type Pokémon have a cool and calm personality, making them easy to get along with. [:

If you had to travel the oceans of the world on the back of a Water Pokemon, which Water Pokemon would you chose and why?
Lapras, probably. It'd be nice if swim across oceans with Slowpoke as well, but not really sure if it would be the brightest idea; Slowpoke are quite... y'know, slow. xD Gyarados would make a good partner, too.
Welcome to Diving Deep. I hope you have a lot to share about Water Pokemon.

Username (Nickname): Elaitenstile (Elaite)
Partner Pokemon (must be Water, name optional): Slogger the Mudkip
Reason for Joining the Club: Water-types are my favourite type without exception. I'm always fascinated with the battle style of Water-types and I quite like the moves that are coming under the category of Water-type. Plus, I always like to be around water, and water is like a wondrous element, in my opinion. I've always liked the first-evolutions of water types and surfing around the water in games is always fun.

If you had to travel the oceans of the world on the back of a Water Pokemon, which Water Pokemon would you chose and why?

I'd choose Swampert. I'm quite content on riding his muddy back and I've always liked Mudkip and his evolutions. The best part is that Swampert would be happy to accompany me while I visit an island for treasure, and with his impressive battling skill I'll always have a strong companion on my side. Since he combines both the water and the earth, I'll only have the sky to hide from.

Did any of you guys wonder how non-water types battle while surfing? With all these restrictions on flying types, it's weird that they don't apply to surf battles, right? I mean, won't it ever happen like this...?

Spoiler:
Pfft that comic {XD}

I guess they all develop instant levitating abilities. But it's pretty much the same issue with fish-like Water-types, like Seaking, Alomomola, Lanturn, etc, in battles on land, right? They'd pretty much just flail around.

Oh yeah, that's a good point. I've seen a lot of this in PMD :) This just means Surf battles >>>>>>>>> infinity >>>> Sky Battles XD

It's quite weird to see Wailord fighting inside Caves too. I guess these are one of the things we'd never understand in Pokémon. Of course, Mega Wailord would just dominate the dungeons lol. That and the fact that we can surf on Tentacool and Finneon. It's just weird, how they manage to take on our full weight endlessly through the seas XD

Reason for Joining the Club: I really love water types. I always have one as part of my main team, whether it's good or bad, I still use them. They always have a cool design in my eyes. (Sure some aren't that great, ie Magikarp and Feebas). But I really would love to join and talk about water types.

Welcome Normal Spirit and Joey to Diving Deep. I must ask Joey if his Rattata is in the top precentage of Rattata.

Omg hahahHa! I totally was not thinking of that when I posted. But I'd have to say yes, it is in the top percentage.

Goodness that Milotic is a tank. I remember battling Champion Cynthia in Pokemon Pearl and when she brought out that Milotic it was game over for me :o. She was a tough cookie that Cynthia!

I'll go for Blastoise, I think. We can swim around super fast and he can probably use Aqua Jet to speed things along; Lapras seems like more of a slow and relaxing swim ride. Seems a bit scary but super fun. :D

I'd definitely ride a Lapras, because it seems like the Pokemon that's designed for crossing the water. Plus it's really cute to see your trainer riding Lapras in X/Y when you use Surf. If I couldn't take a boat, I'd definitely take a Lapras that's for sure!

Never really got why they always stuck with Lapras though. I guess it's like Ash and Pikachu. When you think of a surfing pokemon, you think of Lapras. When you think of Ash, you think of Pikachu. I would of liked them to change it up every game or so. Let's say Lapras is the surfing sprite for Gen I. Gen II could of had a Quagsire or Lanturn. Gen III could of been Sharpedo. Gen IV could of been Empoleon and so forth! They should of changed it up every now and then. What do you guys think? :)

You mean the game sprites? Except for GSC, where it was indeed a Lapras, it's always been a whale-thing. And well yeah, now in Kalos, you can actually ride on the back of your Lapras, but not other Water-types. Maybe that's gonna change in the next game though, if you check bulbapedia's Surf page, it seems like many of the tinier Pokemon can't learn Surf anymore, so they might be preparing to have all the Pokemon shown when using it outside of battle. Can't see Azurill and Froakie carrying a human across the sea though {XD}

Why?! Why would they take surf away from smaller Pokemon?! That is soooooo not cool. Now I have to find a new move to give my Water team. Just ruined my day and its not even noon yet.

That is a good question. I can't really think of a reason why other the the ones already mentioned. I really do think that the water type does need a new intermediate move(with the power of at least 90) because surf is just used all of the time and it's an HM. If they were to do more with Surf and make it more exclusive to certain Pokemon then I think that a new move is in order.

Either that or make Bubble beam go from a power of 65 to 90+ haha. Bubbles of DOOM :P.

Reason for Joining the Club: i really really freakin' love water types. They're like, if not the best, the second best type out there. They've got a huge variety of Pokemon, and, to be honest, i really had a hard time choosing my partner pokemon 'cause many of them are just almost as good as another. mehhehe
