Best Qualities

Oshawott has the highest base Special Attack stat compared to the other starters. However, it has the lowest base Defense, Special Defense, and Speed stat values. This means that the Pokémon must clear out enemy Pokémon first before losing HP.

Oshawott will grow strong from middle to late game since its maximum Attack and Special Attack stat values will catch up as it levels. In addition, this Pokémon will gain an advantage against the first Alpha Pokémon, Kleavor, due to its weakness to water-type moves. Oshawott will acquire a strong water-type move called Razor Shell that has the highest power compared to other starters under level 20.
