Poliwag (Redwald Walker)

Poliwag is the third Pokémon owns. Before Poliwag was obtained, he used to live near Pallet Lake with his pack.

Part Red & Green


Poliwag debuts in when  and  stop by near Pallet Lake on  and find a pack of Poliwag living there. The pack provides its needs on its own with a leader on the top of them. However, a Poliwhirl whom Redwald and Greta refer to as Master Poliwhirl appears and challenges the master to a battle. Compared to a wild Pokémon, Poliwhirl is trained quite well. Master Poliwag loses the battle and gives his throne to Poliwhirl, being banished.

Humaliated, Poliwag leaves the pack. But Redwald shows up in spirit and offers Poliwag a special training to gain his energy to face Poliwhirl again. Poliwag agrees with Redwald and trains hard for the following three days. In the end of the process, Poliwag returns to the pack to declare another battle to Poliwhirl and get his throne back. However, training doesn't help enough with it and Poliwag loses the battle once again.

After Poliwag loses the battle twice and is banished once more, he decides to leave Pallet Lake for good and live on his own. But Redwald makes another offer. He asks Poliwag to come along with him for the rest of his journey until he competes in Kanto League. Not only Poliwag would receive a proper training and has a great chance to improve himself, Redwald himself also would take advantage of it for his journey. Poliwag accepts Redwald's offer and joins his team.

Poliwag battles in Redwald's Gym battle with Brock in the rematch in. Poliwag battles Brock's Aerodactyl first. Poliwag attacks Aerodactyl hardly by climbing the rocks on the battlefied to catch up with him. Despite of Aerodactyl's huge and fast body, Poliwag breaks his balance in the air and makes him fall on the ground. Aerodactyl's weakness being unable to walk on foot proerly, Poliwag takes his advantageous chance and jumps on Aerodactyl's back to damage him properly. In the end, Aerodactyl faints and Redwald substitutes him in the following round.

Personality
Despite Poliwag has been the leader of a pack, he never acts like one. When he is challenged to a Pokémon battle by Poliwhirl, he has always been shy and hesitant in the battle. When he loses the battle twice, he thinks of only leaving the pack behind. He is not good at orginising his moves alone in the battle. He has the proper training he needs after he joins Redwald's team.
