Pokedex: Barboach

I do not like this Pokemon. It looks cool and has some decent Moves, but if it were real it would literally be the stuff of nightmares. The animal that Barboach is based off of looks like a tentacle with a face, and Whiscash is a catfish. I have a fear of fish, and the catfish is a big part of why I do! [shudders]

Anyways, game stuff. It's a Water/Ground type, making it immune to Electric moves, yet extremely vulnerable to Grass Moves. Stat-wise it's not bad, with average Speed and defenses and above average Health and offense. Oblivious can make it immune to Attract, while Anticipation will warn you if the opponent has any super-effective and/or one-hit K.O. Moves. Beyond that, it has some very solid Water and Ground attacks (Water Pulse, Earthquake, Fissure).

Too bad it's a freaky, slimy, whiskery catfish!
