From Generation 3, Swampert is a Water, Ground type Pokémon, known as the Mud Fish Pokémon. Swampert evolves from Marshtomp starting at level 36. It has another form called Mudkip. It can also Mega Evovle into Mega Swampert using Swampertite. Swampert is rather strong, as it has plenty of power to drag a boulder weighing more than a ton and not even bat an eyelash. It can even see in murky water due to its powerful vision. Swampert has an advantage in two domains, Hp and Attack, as they form its highest base stats. It has two abilities Torrent and Damp.
Swampert though it doesn’t have plenty of weaknesses, only one against Grass type, it still causes a huge disadvantage by being very slow and heavy
6. Lapras
Lapras is a Water, Ice type Pokémon. Generation 1 was the first time it made its appearance, making a name for itself – Transport Pokémon. It does not evolve into or form another Pokémon. Though this Pokémon is highly intelligent, and has the ability to understand human speech, humans drove it to extinction. It is said Lapras tends to sing mournfully to seek the attention of the few of its kind remaining. Lapras has the high HP for a Water type; three abilities, that being Shell Armor, Water Absorb, and Hydration.
However, Lapras is not fast at all, which conquers most of its trump cards and abilities. As well as having a weakness against Electric, Fighting, Grass, and Rock types
5. Gyarados
Gyarados is a Water, Flying type Pokémon. Its first introduction was in Generation 1, claiming the name of Atrocious Pokémon. This name is not for show, as it is said when Magikarp evolves to Gyarados, its brains cells experience a structural transformation.
This mainly caused its wildly violent, vicious nature. Gyarados can be obtained starting at level 20. It can Mega Evolve to Mega Gyarados using Gyaradosite. This pokémon’s strong suits are Attack and Special Defense, which mainly compensate for its rather low Special Attack. Claiming two abilities, Gyarados has Intimidate and Moxie, a hidden ability.
However, this Pokémon gives you a lot of disadvantages for its weak and not so weak other stats. Along with its weakness against Electric and Rock types
4. Suicune

It’s one of the Legendary beasts resurrected by Ho-Oh after burning of Brass Tower. Suicune represents rain, the rain that doused the flames of the burning Brass Tower. It runs across lands with gracefulness, and it has the power to purify dirty water. Suicune strong suits would be Defense—115—and Special Defense—115 – as well as HP. It has one special ability—Pressure.
Suicune is quite useless against Electric and Grass types. Though it is said it runs gracefully, in battle, it’s not that fast, nor powerful in attack, so it’s best used as a shield

Yet, Palkia is not very effective against Dragon and Fairy types, as well as having a low HP of 90.
