• Viola's Surskit

Trivia

• Surskit is the first known Pokémon to be Bug/Water-type and was the only Pokémon to have this typing prior to Generation VII with the introduction of Wimpod and Dewpider lines which are Bug and Water-type Pokémon.
  • The Dewpider line has this type in reverse, as it is Water/Bug type instead.
  • Due to this, they are the only Pokémon to have double vulnerability to the Net Ball.
• Surskit is the first non-Fossil Pokémon that has Water as its secondary type.
• Surskit is one of the seven missing Pokémon in the Emerald Version.
• Skrelp, along with Surskit, are the only Water-type Pokémon to lose its Water type upon evolution.
  • However, unlike Skrelp, Surskit had a unique type combination at the time of its creation.

Origin

Surskit is based on the water strider (Also known as pond skater), an insect from the family Gerridae, that glides across the surface of water.

Etymology

Surskit is a combination of surf (referring to its Water type) or surface (referring to the surface of water), and skitter (to move swiftly and quietly).
