>>54766328>>54765784While water pokemon like squirtle or starmie were fine outside of water, FISH pokemon like goldeen or magikarp would splash around uselessly on land.
The issue was never that they couldn't breathe, just their own biology preventing their usefulness. Misty's horsea, for example, couldn't move around on its own due to being a fish, but was perfectly fine when it was held by misty.
Stronger fish pokemon like gyarados or milotic were shown to be perfectly fine on land despite being fish because they were just that strong.
So maybe strength has something to do with it?
