Blastoise is a huge turtle with cannons coming from its shell, which is intimidating all by itself. The size, its demeanor in battle, and its access to some very strong attacks make Blastoise a force to be reckoned with. This Pokemon is one of the few to receive both a Mega Evolution and Gigantamax form, giving it even more power.

The most intimidating Water-type Pokemon is Gyarados; it even has Intimidate as one of its Abilities, which lowers opponents' Attack stat due to being so terrifying to battle against. Its brain structures change during evolution, causing it to be rather violent. Gyarados has a bad temper and is just plain dangerous.
