>>53841018Fair, but I've been talking worst case scenarios here, purely for the sake of argument. Even if Charmander can be argued as having to fear running water in the same way a vampire does (which, as you just demonstrated, actually isn't even the case), a Braixen is DEFINITELY right out in that regard, no ifs, ands, or buts about it, leaving no reason why a Braixen couldn't swim if it wanted to, and certainly wouldn't be harmed by being in a pool, which is the point I was making.
>Literal magic bullshit.Yeah, probably, but that's also a reason not to gauge a fire type's eligibility to swim via the effects of water type moves.
