The Water type is also useful offensively. Water-type Pokémon can learn {{m|Ice Beam}} to deal with {{t|Dragon}}- and {{type|Grass}}s, which would make their resistance to Water-type attacks irrelevant. It can be extremely useful to be super-effective against {{t|Ground}}- and {{type|Rock}}s when traveling through [[cave]]s, etc. As a result of these advantages, as well as having to get through water routes using {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Waterfall}}, and even {{m|Whirlpool}} or {{m|Dive}}, most Trainers usually have at least one Water-type in their [[party]]. Also, double weaknesses to Water are fairly common (largely due to the common Rock/Ground typing) while {{p|Kingdra|there}} {{p|Lotad|are}} {{p|Lombre|only}} {{p|Ludicolo|five}} {{p|Palkia|Pokémon}} that have a double resistance to Water (all of which are Water-types themselves).
