    During my time playing Pokemon Pearl in 2010 for the first time i discovered a really good water pokemon named Floatzel. although it's defenses are weak it more than makes up for it with good speed and high attack. that combined with swift swim could give it the edge against any opponent. Floatzel seems to be underrated, it's aqua jet and ice fang are nearly unmatched, by my analysis Floatzel is a pretty good pokemon , one i intend to use in future pokemon games. Floatzel also has a yellow floatation sac around it's neck, which also acts as a lifeboat carrying nearly drowned swimmers back to safety. these herioc acts makes it stand out even more in my book. and not just because i'm a water type specialist, but also because it's a cool pokemon. there's plenty to love about floatzel and not much to dislike.

    A++ Pokemon.

    I used a Modest Floatzel with Waterfall, Aqua Jet, Brine, and Rain Dance. I beat the Elite Four with it :D

    It's also orange, which matches my purse :o

    I like to use it for Baton Passing. It is actually viable competitively in that regard.

    I use it on my LU rain team where it outspeeds several dangerous threats when the rain stops.

    I have to admit floatzel is a randomly underrated Pokemon after it Ohkoed my skarmory with a crit in rain :(, I countered it log time ago when I was using rain on DP OU ladder and I got swept backward by it.

    Bulk Up Baton Pass Floatzel used to be useful. :) Carries Waterfall and can KO a few pokes too.
