Misty's Starmie (anime)

Misty's Starmie is one of Misty's Pokemon that see used during her travels through Kanto. It was not used nearly as often as her Staryu and is implied to be weaker in battle, despite being Staryu's evolved form. Starmie is used more for transport than for battle, often carrying Misty across water, although it is unknown if it is capable of actually using Surf (in the anime a Pokemon need not know Surf in order to carry their trainer across water). She later gave it away to the Cerulean Gym to preform in underwater shows.
