00:00This is Ashley with WatchMojo and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 water
00:13type Pokemon.
00:32For this list, we'll be looking at some of the most powerful, iconic as well as most
00:36popular water types to ever appear in the Pokemon franchise.
01:02The final evolved form of the playful totodile, Feraligatr is one tough customer.
01:08Preferring to hunt on all fours while on land, Feraligatr's powerful hind legs grant it impressive
01:14agility when hunting prey or fighting strong opponents.
01:26Along with its powerful jaws, which it uses to terrify and rip apart its prey, Feraligatr
01:32has impressive attack and defensive stats, and can learn a variety of powerful physical
01:37moves such as Ice Fang, Thrash, and Superpower.
01:42Feraligatr also possesses an advantage over the other starter Pokemon, as it can reach
01:46its final evolutionary form much faster than the rest at level 30.
02:09Inspired by the mythical Loch Ness Monster, Lapras is known for its docile and gentle nature,
02:15and for ferrying people and Pokemon across the sea.
02:18Formerly driven to near extinction by poachers, protection efforts and love for this Pokemon
02:24allowed for its population to grow in abundance.
02:27During the Orange Island saga, Lapras proved itself an invaluable member of Asha's team
02:33before returning it to its herd.
02:42Along with its enchanting melodies, Lapras is highly intelligent, being able to understand
02:48human speech and in some rare cases, can even use telepathy.
02:53Because of the 8th generation, Lapras became one of the few Pokemon with the power to Gigantamax,
02:59giving it a major boost in both size and power.
03:078.
03:13Slowbro
03:17Don't let its dopey appearance fool you or this Pokemon will
03:23show you a world of hurt.
03:25One of the evolved forms of Slowpoke that occurs when a shoulder bites its tail, Slowbro are
03:36mostly peaceful and tend to avoid confrontation.
03:40When forced into battle, Slowbro quickly demonstrates that despite its dimwitted and forgetful nature,
03:46it is not to be underestimated.
03:49While it may not win a contest of speed, Slowbro makes up for this with its powerful psychic
03:54abilities and strong defense.
04:03While the design of its Mega Evolution leaves something to be desired, Mega Slowbro is nonetheless
04:08formidable due to having one of the highest base defense stats in the franchise.
04:137.
04:14Swampert
04:27As one of the most popular starter Pokemon, it's only natural that Mudkip's final form
04:32would be a major powerhouse.
04:34Along with having enough physical strength to smash giant boulders and drag large ships,
04:39Swampert is also part ground type, which makes it immune to electric types, effectively giving
04:46it an advantage over other water Pokemon.
04:55A natural-born threat on its own, Swampert became even more formidable thanks to Mega Evolution.
05:01Sporting a bulkier appearance, complete with a boost to its attack and defense, Mega Swampert
05:07is able to overcome its slow speed thanks to its Swift Swim ability, which doubles its speed
05:13in the rain.
05:14Whether on land or sea, this Pokemon reigns supreme.
05:186.
05:19Psyduck
05:20He may not be the most powerful water type, but Misty Psyduck is an iconic figure in the
05:37Pokemon franchise.
05:39While Psyduck's absent-minded nature is often a source of ire for Misty, he manages to stand
05:44out compared to the rest of her Pokemon, and often surprises her in the most unlikely
05:49ways.
05:54While not much of a fighter, Psyduck does possess immense latent potential that emerges whenever
06:02he gets a headache.
06:03When Psyduck's mental pains reach their peak, he responds by unleashing powerful bursts of
06:09psychic energy capable of overpowering Pokemon that are normally much stronger than him.
06:185.
06:19Vaporeon
06:31One of Eevee's three original evolutions from the first generation, Vaporeon stands out from
06:37its other forms thanks to its physical traits which allow it to survive on both land and underwater.
06:43Sporting a majestic mermaid-like appearance, Vaporeon is also known for its unique cell structure,
06:51allowing it to camouflage itself by literally melting into water.
07:02Along with possessing the highest base HP stat of all the Eeveelutions, Vaporeon possesses
07:08high special attack and special defense, and is immune to water types thanks to its water
07:14absorbability.
07:16From battles to contests, Vaporeon is an ideal water type for any trainer to have on their team.
07:23Vaporeon is also known as the creator of the world's oceans, Kyogre is a member of the weather
07:43trio whose abilities allow it to control water and, by extension, the weather.
07:48After undergoing the process of primal reversion, Kyogre's abilities are amplified to god-like
07:54levels.
08:01In its primal form, Kyogre possesses the highest special attack, special defense, and overall
08:06base stat total of all water types, along with gaining the ability to fly.
08:12When it comes face-to-face with its rival, Groudon, this almighty leviathan becomes violent, causing
08:18natural disasters of biblical proportions.
08:223.
08:27Gyarados
08:29It's hard to imagine that this giant sea serpent evolves from a useless magikarp.
08:40Praised and feared for its high attack power, Gyarados is a popular Pokemon among experienced
08:46trainers, including gym leaders, champions, and even leaders of criminal organizations.
08:52Now, Gyarados, release your Mega Evolution energy!
08:59With scales stronger than steel, powerful fangs, as well as the ability to breathe fire and destructive
09:06beams, Gyarados' rage is unparalleled.
09:09Thanks to Mega Evolution, Gyarados' destructive power is further amplified, granting it physical
09:15attack power that surpasses all water types.
09:20As the final evolved form of the original water type starter, Blastoise has acquired quite the
09:36reputation in the fandom.
09:39Sacrificing speed for power and defense, Blastoise's main strengths are its powerful shell and the
09:44hydro cannons on its back, which fire jets of water strong enough to blast through steel,
09:49as well as allow Blastoise to perform devastating high-speed tackles.
09:59With its power and reputation continuing to grow with every generation, Blastoise has acquired
10:04plenty of boosts, including a Mega Evolution, as well as a Gigantamax form.
10:10Regardless of how much time passes, Blastoise remains a constant favourite among both new
10:15and old fans alike.

11:54Greninja!
11:59With its ninja-like design and inspired abilities that emphasize speed and stealth, Greninja
12:05easily stands out among its fellow water starters.
12:08Greninja's popularity grew to the point where it was voted Japan's most popular Pokemon
12:23in 2016, as well as Pokemon of the Year in 2020, and was even featured as a playable
12:29character in Smash Bros.
12:31Along with having the highest speed stat of all fully evolved starters, Greninja is also
12:36the only Pokemon that transforms via the Bond phenomenon into an alternative form known
12:42as Ash Greninja.
12:44In this form, Greninja experiences a massive boost to its attack and speed stats, and also
12:58amplifies the power of its signature move, Water Shuriken.
13:03On the other hand, you're the only one who has a strong opponent.
13:16If you're not going to be a superhero, you'll be able to force it to the world.
