Trivia

  • In Generation III, only a handful of Template:Type2 Pokémon could learn Water Pulse from leveling up. This is more common in Generation IV, where many Water-type Pokémon had their movesets altered to include this move.
  • If Secret Power is used on water in Generation IV, it will have the animation of Water Pulse.
