Behavior of Inteleon

Inteleon’s spy motif stays with its behavior as well. It has an air of cool confidence and its constant gun-like hand posing is backed up by being able to shoot water from its fingers. It also has a membrane on its back which it uses to glide quietly past enemies.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Inteleon is a pure water type so it's simple to know its resistances and weaknesses. It takes half damage from steel, fire, water, and ice and it takes double damage from grass and electric type moves.

Best Moveset for Inteleon

Offensive Special Attacker: Inteleon’s best stats are its special attack and speed, however, its speed is still rather unspectacular. But paired with a Choice Scarf, Inteleon’s ability to learn lots of high-power moves makes it a good choice for a sweeper.
