Pokédex entries
| RedBlue | A brutal POKEMON with pressurized water jets on its shell. They are used for high speed tackles. |
|---|---|
| Yellow | Once it takes aim at its enemy, it blasts out water with even more force than a fire hose. |
| Stadium | It has spouts extending from its shell at the top. They spray water like cannons, hard enough to pierce concrete walls. |
| GoldStadium 2 | It deliberately makes itself heavy so it can withstand the recoil of the water jets it fires. |
| Silver | The rocket cannons on its shell fire jets of water capable of punching holes through thick steel. |
| Crystal | It firmly plants its feet on the ground before shooting water from the jets on its back. |
