>>16178968Although Skrelp is a nice Pokemon with what you assume are good intentions. He's honestly...not TOO bright. As in, he wants to help and is probably the most willing out of your team to do anything you say ever without any reason.
But....his head's not all there, and you can tell that just by looking at him.
He also looks like he desperately needs a sandwich.
It also doesn't help his case that he's cursed. Or so, that's what Dragalge and the entire underwater sea community says. He's a menace to society and a general nuisance.
....Why you ever agreed to take him with you on your journey in the first place is beyond you. Maybe it was the look of dying in his eyes, like he's a kid with cancer and he thinks you're the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
His wish? To kick ass by your side, or in his case, on top of your head.
Whatever the case may be, it would be very wrong of you to deny him his wish of rump wreckage. You might as well let him have his turn in the limelight before he inevitably goes down.
"Skrelp, Aqua Tail!"
Squealing like a little pig, Skrelp's leafy tail begins to glow, but before he unleashes his attack, you stop him.
"Wait! Don't smack him just yet!"
"Skrel?"
Here's something you've noticed about Skrelp. He's a very clunky floater, and swimmer by extent. His fins are small and practically non-existent, he has no real way to propel himself aside from wiggling vigorously and hoping to move in the direction he wants to go.
Basically, he's clunky as all hell, and perhaps the most sluggish Pokemon on your team.
It's quite a change from the quick Pokemon you're so used to training and ripping asses with. In order to regain the upper advantage, you'll have to think of some new strategies.
One of those new strategies is being put to the test now, and all Skrelp has to do in order to pull it off is simply stand still, and wait.
