Squirtle is a short, {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|tailed bipedal}} Pokémon. However, it has also been shown to be able to walk on all fours. They resemble a light blue turtle with their most notable feature being the hard shell on their back. This shell forms and hardens on its back after birth. They could perhaps be distantly related to some other turtle-like Pokémon, such as {{p|Torkoal}} and {{p|Turtwig}}, but Squirtle seems to only be closely related to their evolutions. | Squirtle is a short, {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|tailed bipedal}} Pokémon.

Squirtle's shell is an extremely helpful defensive tool. They can {{m|withdraw}} into the shell to block physical attacks. Their smooth, hard shell and head also aid them in other ways, such as minimizing their resistance in water to increase their swimming speed, and allowing them to launch attacks like {{m|Rapid Spin}} and {{m|Skull Bash}}. | Squirtle's shell is an extremely helpful defensive tool.
