Wartortle is a bipedal, indigo-blue turtle with a brown shell, and a long, furry tail, and ears. It is more aggressive than Squirtle. It hides in water while hunting, and emerges to surprise its prey, and is a tough Pokémon that often has scratches on its shell which serve as reminders of past battles. To maintain balance while swimming at high speeds, Wartortle moves its unusual furry ears, and its tail. This tail, covered in rich, thick fur, is so long that it sticks out a bit even when Wartortle withdraws into its shell. It uses the fur to store air for extended underwater diving. It is a popular pet, as it is long-lived. Wartortle, and in particular its tail, is considered a symbol of longevity. As a Wartortle ages, algae may grow on its shell, and the color of its tail fur deepens. It is said that this Pokémon can live for up to 10,000 years.
Wartortle can spit water out of its mouth at higher speeds than Squirtle. It can swim faster, as well.
Wartortle are loyal to their trainers.
Wartortle can be found living on island beaches near the ocean, but their preferred habitat seems to be freshwater ponds, and lakes.
(Unconfirmed!)
Its design appears to be a stylized turtle.
Wartortle's name is a combination of "war," "tortoise,", and "turtle."
