Whirlpool (obstacle)

Whirlpools are a type of aquatic obstacle appearing in the Generation II core series games and their remakes Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver. To get past them, the player must have a Pokémon use the field move Whirlpool.

In Generation II, the field move Whirlpool dispels whirlpools. In HeartGold and SoulSilver, it instead simply allows the player to cross them.
