@Jess19980last year And now politoed has returned in journeys and has revealed itself to be a great battler and learned new attacks like: bounce, focus blast and hydro pump. . ...Expand 71

@Smarmey2 years ago I like to think politoed is using helping hand while he is clapping in the stands. Secretly giving a boost to whichever team hes cheering for. 31
@

@NightRises2344 years ago Im obsessed with mistys team. King politoed finally getting the spotlight it deserves! Im glad she got politoed over poliwrath. Its obvious they wanted misty to show off the johto evolution instead. 194
@

@the_one_yoinky_sploinky3 years ago Politoed is such a nice pokmon to have quarantine, its very happy and could cheer us up whenever we need some entertainment or just want to play with politoed! 96
@

@guillaumehomier50384 years ago It' s illogic for poliwhirl to evolve into poliwrath using a water stone, think about it, a water stone to gain some fighting aptitudes. 210

@bakedtarts3 years ago I remember that poliwag was soo cute! Until now its still one of my favorite cute pokmons design! And then as poliwhirl it hid behind misty aw. 41

@PowerStruggle5554 years ago (when poliwhirl evolved into politoad)
politoad: politoad, politoad
brock: poliwhirl evolved into politoad
misty: oh really? I thought it involved into a snorlax. 31

@guillaumehomier50384 years ago I would like an episode about ash' s snorlax. 68

@oldscoolgaming67004 years ago Andreas also got himself banned from the Cerulean City Gym for bullying Misty's pokmon. 8

@santonen359last year Please update this. Politoed battled corphish and won to get clauncher. 8
@

@valentin8664 years ago I think that politoed wasn' t replaced by corsola i think that the production just prefered corsola. I don' t feel like politoed got on mistys nerves. 56

@TheLonelySoulja3 years ago Hindsight i think misty shouldve had totodile because the rest of the series ashs female friends had a starter and not just him. As a kid i wanted him to have them all. 12

@SpiralPoliFemboy3 years ago Misty' s politoed is the best pokmon in the anime. 9
@

@bige818922 years ago I wish we couldve seen politoed battle another poliwrath. It wouldve been a great chance to prove that even though its evolution didnt turn out qui id="hidden12"te how misty imagined, its still just as good if not better than any poliwrath. ...Expand 2

@

@NOLJAK3 years ago I like how mistys poliwhirl evolved into politoad instead of poliwrath! I thought it suited her more! And yes all poliwhirls evolutions such as poliw id="hidden13"ag and wrath are iconic just like phyduck, jiggly puff, pikachu, evee, and meowth! Pokmon again is a good anime show, and video game put together. Thats why i love it. ...Expand 3

@luisvelez19523 years ago I have a question for you silver much like ninetales, pelipper and gigalith do you hope that more pokmon will have the drought, sand stream in th id="hidden14"e future with a second type like tyrannitar? Personally ill be impressed if a type pokmon have the drizzle or drought ability. Sand stream has to be part rock or ground so it wont lose hp each turn. You forgot that politoed has the drizzle ability to better in battle. ...Expand 5

@joshquino23 years ago Love these. Waiting for jessies wobbuffet.
@

@LordRumshi2 years ago I imagine if misty was able to evolve her poliwhirl into poliwrath, then it could be assumed that poliwrath would' ve remained her primary battle partner and had a personality change as well. 7
@

@timoleelast year Politoad king came back and showed he is still a battler. 1
@

@ar23431last year As i understand it, i don' t know if this is a rumor, but in jhoto it was planned that misty and psyduck would settle their differences
and but for x reason, they changed it to politoed, maybe they never thought of an alternative evolution for psyduck.
misty admitting that he was a pain in the ass, but he pushes himself and tries and she appreciates that, so when she admits to him that she loves him, psyduck he was going to evolve, bringing the plot of the orange islands. ...Expand

@u.k.trainandbusvidslast year Poliwhirl is my favourite pokmon poliwag is my favourite too when that becomes poliwhirl i often choose poliwrath over politoed as i prefer poliwrath as its a solid strong pokmon.

@leecrawford65603 years ago This guy is easy to listen to, i like it.
@

@GeteMachine3 years ago I think misty should have won totodile simply because she would have been a lot better for it. Ash doesn' t use it anymore and she would have evolved it by now. 4

@Jinaria1013 years ago To be fair the writers knew exactly what they were doing when they decided to give her a poliwag. 1
@

@LordRumshi3 years ago I' ve always felt it was a little weird how poliwhirl can evolve into politoed since it feels slightly out of place. Going from whatever poliwhirl is based off of to transforming into a literal frog.
@

@tryantoheallast year Have any main character pokmon evolved via evolution stone?
@

@Godzilla00X3 years ago Shame we never got an episode highlighting politoad and totodile. Considering both had a care free personality, the two would be fast friends giving misty more headaches than psyduck.
