Some Water-type Pokémon in their natural habitat.

The Water type (みずタイプ Mizu taipu in Japanese) is one of the eighteen Pokémon elemental types.

It is said this type is pure, its Pokémon can adapt to any situation and weather, since water can adapt itself in several forms. For example, water adapts the form of a glass if poured into one, while if poured in a cube it adopts the form of the cube. That's why Water-type Pokémon feel happy anywhere, as long as there's water. Most Pokémon of this type also have another type, representing the biodiversity of marine creatures.

Most Water-type Pokémon are based on creatures that live on water, or use water for their disposition. Their attacks involve use of water, if not, attacks that can be done only by marine creatures (like Clamp, Crabhammer and Razor Shell).

Famous Water-type Pokémon Trainers include Misty, the second Kanto Gym Leader; Wallace, eight Hoenn Gym Leader and then Champion; Juan, eight Hoenn Gym Leader after Wallace; Crasher Wake, fourth Gym Leader of Sinnoh; Cress, one of the three Gym Leaders of Striaton City in Unova; Marlon, Gym Leader of Humilau City in Unova; and Siebold, a member of the Kalos Pokémon League.
