11 Overview

33 Squirtle is a Water-type Pokemon in Pokemon Pokopia, classified as the Tiny Turtle Pokemon (Dex #007). Squirtle holds the distinction of being the very first Pokemon you befriend in the game. You encounter a famished Squirtle at the start of your adventure in the Withered Wasteland, and it teaches Ditto the Water Gun transformation, which is the first move you learn.

1313 Squirtle is found in Withered Wasteland, the game's starting region. Your first encounter with Squirtle is scripted: you will spot a famished Squirtle lying on the ground near the start of the game. After approaching it, Ditto learns its first transformation (Water Gun) and uses it to wake Squirtle up.

1515 How to Befriend
1616  
1717 Squirtle is befriended automatically as part of the opening tutorial. When you find the collapsed Squirtle, approaching it triggers a cutscene where Ditto learns Water Gun and revives Squirtle by spraying it with water. This makes Squirtle the only Pokemon in the game that is befriended through a mandatory story event rather than a habitat build.

2727 Specialty: Water

2929 Squirtle has the Water specialty. Pokemon with this specialty will automatically spray water on nearby fields and plants when a basin filled with water is placed close to their habitat. This is one of the most practical specialties in the game, as it automates crop watering and keeps your farms irrigated without manual effort.
