Tierno's Blastoise: Difference between revisions

Blastoise made its debut appearance as a Squirtle in ''[[XY039|Summer of Discovery!]]'', in which it was used in a [[Multi Battle|Team Battle]] against [[Ash's Pikachu]], [[Serena's Fennekin]], and [[Clemont's Chespin]] alongside [[Shauna's Bulbasaur]] and [[Trevor's Charmander]]. It managed to defeat Fennekin but lost to Pikachu.

Squirtle appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY044|Showdown at the Shalour Gym!]]''. It was also seen battling [[Clembot]] and his {{TP|Clemont|Heliolisk}} at the [[Lumiose Gym]] in a flashback. While the outcome of this battle is unknown, Tierno did win the {{badge|Voltage}}.

It appeared again in ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]'', in which it was revealed to have [[Evolution|evolved]] into Wartortle. It first performed a dance with Tierno's other Pokémon, but was later captured by {{TRT}} along with Raichu and [[Ash's Sliggoo]]. After Team Rocket's plan failed, the Pokémon reunited with their {{pkmn|Trainer}}s and Sliggoo evolved into Goodra. Later, Wartortle was used in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] alongside Raichu against Pikachu and Goodra. It fought well but lost.

It reappeared in ''[[XY090|Tag Team Battle Inspiration!]]'' as a Blastoise, in which it participated in a Tag Battle along with Ash's Pikachu against [[Shauna's Ivysaur]] and [[Serena's Eevee]], in an attempt to get the latter Pokémon to overcome its shyness. Blastoise's dancing inspired Eevee to respond with her own dancing, allowing her to evade Blastoise's attacks and land a hit with {{m|Swift}} until Serena called the battle off to {{pkmn|training|practice}} for her upcoming [[Pokémon Showcase]].

In [[XY126]], Blastoise was used during Tierno's battle against [[Sawyer]] in the quarterfinals of the [[Lumiose Conference]]. It was sent out after Tierno [[Recall|returned]] Raichu to its [[Poké Ball]] due to its {{status|infatuation}} with {{p|Slurpuff}}, whose {{m|Attract}} had no effect on Blastoise. As a result, Blastoise was able to hit the {{pkmn|category|Meringue Pokémon}} with a powerful {{m|Hydro Cannon}}, rendering it [[Fainting|unable to battle]].

After that, Blastoise went up against [[Sawyer's Sceptile]]. It managed to stand his ground for a while, even resisting a [[Damage|super-effective]] {{m|Leaf Blade}}, but ended up losing after it got hit by {{m|Frenzy Plant}}. Before it fainted, it used {{m|Rain Dance}} to change the [[weather]] and make things easier for its teammate Raichu.

It reappeared in [[XY132]], where it joined the fight against [[Team Flare]].

{{p|Blastoise}} is Tierno's [[starter Pokémon]], which Tierno received from [[Professor Sycamore]] when it was still a {{p|Squirtle}}.

It is a friendly Pokémon that often dances with its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, but can be annoyed if attacked, as shown when {{p|Raichu}} accidentally hit it with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. As a Squirtle, it used its nimble dance moves to outmaneuver its opponents in battle, allowing it to defeat much larger and imposing Pokémon such as {{p|Conkeldurr}}, and giving it an upper hand over [[Ash's Froakie]]. It maintained its agility even after evolving into the much more bulky Blastoise.

Blastoise is [[Friendship|very loyal]] to Tierno and shares some personality traits with its Trainer. It is a skillful dancer and it is able to easily mimic Tierno's dance moves.
