Water-type is one of the primary elemental categories in the Pokémon franchise. Pokémon of this type are often associated with aquatic environments, such as oceans, rivers, and lakes. They typically have abilities and moves that involve water, making them effective against Fire-type Pokémon while being vulnerable to Electric-type and Grass-type Pokémon. In battles, Water-type Pokémon can use a variety of moves, including Surf and Hydro Pump. Many Water-type Pokémon also have dual types, which can enhance their strengths and weaknesses. Popular examples include Squirtle, Gyarados, and Lapras, each showcasing unique characteristics and abilities.
