Rory's three Swinub—Su (Japanese: ウー U), Ein (Japanese: リー Ri), and Ub (Japanese: ムー Moo) are the Pokémon Rory uses to locate possible hot spring sources. When Team Rocket interfered with such a locating operation, the three Swinub were kidnapped, then rescued, and finally battled against Wobbuffet, Arbok, Weezing, and Victreebel, freezing them. In the end, they managed to locate a water source.
All three Swinub know Powder Snow and Tackle, and additionally, Ein knows Take Down.
