it’s better than several other Kanto waters due to Amnesia/Hypnosis and Amnesia/Submission being great unique combos. Sure, it’s beaten by the very best ones, but if you try actually playing the game you’ll find it has more use than most gen 1 waters

Just got my own shiny Politoed earlier this week. Thinking of nabbing a shiny Poliwrath too just because I like both of them so damn much.

Shiny Poliwrath should’ve been his default color. Combats the “just gets bigger” a little bit and makes him look more like a frog.
