Strongest Water Type Starter Pokemon

The Top Ten
1 Primarina

Primarina has the highest Special Attack and Special Defense out of all starters... (excluding their mega forms)... She is also very useful in competitive battles thanks to being Fairy... She can learn variety types of tm that can cover her two out of three weakness... For Poison type... She can counter it with Psychic... For Grass type.. She can counter it with Ice Beam...

Fairy type is beast and has the highest special attack of all starters

It is very powerful it has great typing

First water - fairy type EVER

2 Greninja Greninja is a Water/Dark type Pokemon introduced in Gen 6. It is the evolved form of Frogadier and the final evolved form of the water starter Froakie. Aside from the usual Torrent ability all Water starters have (Which raises the power of its Water moves), it also has the ability Protean, which changes ...read more.

Greninja is a really powerful pokemon, I agree, even in some games it really is Level 36 and It defeated a level 80, it should be Number 1! So.. GO! Greninja!

It is more powerful than all. As it mega evolution defeat the no. 1 mega evolution. So it is more powerful

Have you seen his moveset... it learns double team, extrasensory, Mat Block, Spikes it is an amazing sweeper just easy take down

It sucks greninja can literally get two shot by pokemon that are just effective against it

3 Feraligatr Feraligatr, known in Japan as Ordile, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

I have a Feraligatr and she's my best team member in Soulsilver!

Wrecks the elite four

4 Swampert Swampert, known in Japan as Laglarge, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Besides having a mega, Swampert by it self has great stats all around. Swamperts mega makes this Pokemon become to OP and to add on swamperts OP his typing in my opinion is the best, Water/Ground which gets rid of super effective electric moves giving this typing only one weakness and that is grass.

I really like Swampert because he only has one weakness which is pretty DOPE! And in Mudkip form he is the cutest. So I would recommend choosing him for whatever pokemon game you're playing. I also like all the other starters so please don't get angry at my comment for what I've said.

GO POKEMON!

This is my favorite pokemon ever! It might be one of the best water type to use, even though, Greninja has more love, I think, but go, Swampert! GO!

Swampert is even more underrated then greninja, swampert can literally avalanche sweep any uunfortunate grass souls who dare enter the battle when trick room is active

5 Samurott Samurott, known in Japan as Daikenki, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Oshawott is awesome. All I can say.

Great Pokemon

Samurott is op, IT HAS SWORDS! It learns a lot TM and helpful move that help counter its weakness.

It's the besttt man why is it in 7 th

6 Blastoise Blastoise, known in Japan as Kamex, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Blastoise is one of the original starters who has good bulk and sports a mega evolution giving it more strength offensively.

Blastoise is my favorite starter it's only bad st at is speed but same with swampert also it is your starter so most likely is going to be for highest level

It is the best and favourite pokemon

Best spinner ever

7 Empoleon Empoleon, known in Japan as Emperte, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Great Pokemon. Can cover all of its weaknesses, great defensive AND offensive typing, does absolutely GREAT in Ubers and every tier it is allowed in, OK abilities and great design. Having trouble with every Xerneas running around in Ubers? Use Empoleon. Ground types? Hydro Pump, Scald, Ice Beam; you get the point. Fighting types? Drill Peck! Grass types? Ice Beam! Electric types? Earthquake! Want to boost Empoleon's attack even more? Swords Dance! Want some reliable recovery? Leftovers + Aqua Ring or Rest! Want Empoleon to be faster? Aqua Jet solves the problem! Weakness Policy Torrent Empoleon is also great. It fits on any item with almost any item. Plus, it's unpredictable.

I love this pokeon! It might be because of nostalgia cause gen 4 was my first game and piplup was my first pokeon EVER but I really do love Empoleon. Not to mention water-steel is a unique typing.

So much better than Feraligatr, Samurott, and non-mega blastoise

Only con is I wish it was ICE type

8 Vaporeon Vaporeon, known in Japan as Showers, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

If Eevee is a starter, then Vaporeon can be a water type starter Pokemon. Vaporeon is chill. Good stats, nice design, Vaporeon is a good Pokemon.

9 Popplio Popplio, known in Japan as Ashimari, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.
10 Froakie Froakie, known in Japan as Keromatsu, is a Pokémon species in Nintendo and Game Freak's Pokémon franchise.

Froakie isn't the best water starter, that's for sure, but he's probably one of the strongest early-game Pokemon and sure, Greninja sucks with all of its weaknesses, but at least Froakie is a strong early game pokemon with lick, which is a ghost type move.

The thing is, Froakie is far from the best water starter, 'cause it's literally not even evolved nor could it beat any Pokemon with a level higher than 15 if it's level 5.

It was created by Ken Sugimori, Magikarp first appeared in the video games Pokémon Red and Blue and subsequent sequels. It is a water type that evolves into Gyarados at level 20.
