Talk:Vaporeon (Pokémon)

Water's effectiveness

Here's the problem: although technically Vaporeon takes no damage from Water-type attacks while it has Water Absorb, the (UP TO 25%) healing it receives still applies it's resistance to Water. Personally, I'd rather list Water's effectiveness as 0, noting the hidden resistance on the Water Absorb page. What do you think? That okay? --ANinyMouse 03:35, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Battling with Vaporeon

Here's a good Dubble Battle idea.

You will need:

Vaporeon with Hydro Pump, Surf, Ice Beam, and Blizzered holding Icical Plate or Splash Plate

Jolteon with Skill Swap, Rain Dance, Thunder, and Shock Wave holding Quick Claw

Once the battle starts:

1. Get Jolteon to use Skill Swap on Vaporeon so that Vaporeon now has Volt Absorb and Jolteon has Water Absorb.

2. Attack until both opponents are fainted. If Vaporeon's HP gets low, use Shock Wave. If Jolteon's HP gets low, use Surf (witch will attack both opponents as well as heal Jolteon)

Also, a good idea is to give Jolteon alot of Carbos before the battle to increase it's speed so that it's even more likely to go first.

Traits

Shouldn't it have traits of Lion? It's collar (which is a maine) reminds me of a Lion's Maine sometimes , and it's old sprite kind of looked Lion-ish. And don't complain about what I'm saying/typing right now, if you you don't think Lion traits should be there don't add it. (I can give more reasons about the Lion trait if you want. XD) File:Ani134MS.gif_{Evil Sonic}File:Ani134MS.gif 06:30, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Acid Armor

In Vaporeon's "special abilities" section, it says:

"As stated previously, they have a unique molecular structure. They have the ability to "melt" into a body of water and disappear completely from view".

Does anyone mind if I add in a link to the attack acid armor, since its a clear reference to that? - unsigned comment from Wikid (talk • contribs)

I think that there is a connection there, but not in the way that is implied. It also seems just a little co-incedental, but would not do harm if reworded. I hope nobody minds if I change the wording myself in the trivia section Monblazon 17:34, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Worth mentioning?

In FRLG, I got an alternate coloured Vaporeon BUT was not the same colour as a shiny. It was the same when it was an Eevee. SD13 Simpsondude13>SD13 Talk 15:59, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

It sounds to me like a hacked game or a glitch rather than anything that could just happen to anybody. UltimateSephiroth ^{(about me · chat · edits)} 15:48, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, it was on FR. The LG was a glitch game bought from a normal shop though. - unsigned comment from Simpsonsdude13 (talk • contribs)

Never mind, was shiny. SD13 Simpsondude13>SD13 Talk 10:05, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
