Physical and special attacks use different attack factors. Defense and special defense affect the matching incoming damage category; they are not flat percentages of damage blocked. Speed is the game’s base movement value.

A balanced Water base for a patient run

Wartortle’s equal 80 defenses and closely matched attack factors suit a measured Water route. We would develop one attack and let control improve the movement plan.

Taking damage, pull and regeneration too early can leave every job underdeveloped. A broad pool does not replace attack levels.

Our recommendation combines this partner’s move options and base stats with the records available. The capture time is shown for each board; individual records do not reveal their game build or loadout. These are recorded runs, not win rates or a current-patch build test. Browse the records →

These are priorities and alternatives, not three attacks you receive or fire together. The selected slot keeps casting; existing projectiles, placed fields and temporary buffs can remain after switching. Bonds let several moves keep casting from one selected group.

A buff cast adds a stack rather than instantly granting the maximum bonus. Refresh it, return to damage before it expires, or combine it with damage in a Bond. It affects your player, not the whole team. Do not pass up a useful damage upgrade just to complete this list.

Main attack first

Water Gun

special · Water

The special default has a clear Power evolution goal.

ScaldLv. 5 Water Gun + Power

Localized control

Whirlpool

special · Water

Pull can organize a nearby group. We would not assume it replaces the main projectile or makes the center safe.

BrineLv. 5 Whirlpool + Synthesis

Personal recovery

Aqua Ring

buff · Water

Give the buff active time deliberately, or combine it with damage after a suitable Bond.

Upgrade order

1. Keep Water Gun reliable through early levels.
2. If developing Whirlpool, look for Synthesis instead of assuming Power covers it.
3. Add regeneration after damage works, and select the correct Bond group if combining moves.

If the cards do not cooperate: Bubble provides a slowing alternative if Whirlpool is unavailable. Commit to its Sprint requirement only when developing that attack.

We would give Wartortle the control job after its own damage is adequate. A teammate can keep attacking during a planned buff refresh; neither player’s buffs transfer.

Charmeleon

Consider Ember →

Charmeleon can keep projectile damage active while Wartortle tries a localized control route.

Ivysaur

Consider Energy Ball →

Ivysaur can choose homing special damage while Wartortle uses a different pattern. This is a pairing to try, not a recorded best duo.

Kanto pairings to try, not an all-roster co-op ranking or a tested best team. Each player manages their own active slot and buffs. A partner knowing a move does not mean it keeps casting throughout the run.

1. Go around the pull center

   The grouped enemies can still hit. Use the area to plan a route, not a place to wait.

2. Compare the cards too

   A 0.01 attack-factor difference is small. Range, cooldown and behavior deserve attention.

3. Inspect the active group

   Before Bonds, the selected slot keeps casting. Existing projectiles, placed fields and temporary buffs may last after a switch, but an inactive slot does not keep recasting them. Recheck the active group after reorganizing.

These are the cards this partner can learn, including its default attack. They are choices, not a loadout you receive at once. An evolution requires the base move at its maximum level and the listed stat card; attack names alone do not imply extra effects such as healing.
