Pokédex Entries19
English
Squirtle - Tiny Turtle Pokémon
SQUIRTLE's shell is not merely used for protection. The shell's rounded shape and the grooves on its surface help minimize resistance in water, enabling this POKéMON to swim at high speeds.
French
Carapuce - Pokémon Minitortue
La carapace de CARAPUCE ne sert pas qu'à le protéger. La forme ronde de sa carapace et ses rainures lui permettent d'améliorer son hydrodynamisme lorsqu'il est dans l'eau. Ce POKéMON nage donc extrêmement vite.
German
Schiggy - Minikröte
SCHIGGYs Panzer dient nicht nur zum Schutz. Die runde Form und die Furchen auf der Oberfläche verringern den Widerstand im Wasser, so dass dieses POKéMON sehr schnell schwimmen kann.
Spanish
Squirtle - Pokémon Tortuguita
El caparazón de SQUIRTLE no le sirve de protección únicamente. Su forma redondeada y las hendiduras que tiene le ayudan a reducir su resistencia al agua y le permiten nadar a gran velocidad.
Italian
Squirtle - Pokémon Tartaghina
La corazza di SQUIRTLE non serve soltanto da protezione. La particolare forma arrotondata e le scanalature superficiali lo aiutano a minimizzare l'attrito dell'acqua, per nuotare ad alta velocità.
Japanese
ゼニガメ (ZENIGAME) - かめのこポケモン (KamenokoPOKEMON)
こうらの やくめは みを まもる だけではない。 まるい かたちと ひょうめんの みぞが みずの ていこうを へらすので はやく およげるのだ。 (Kourano yakumeha miwo mamoru dakedehanai. Marui katachito hyoumenno mizoga mizuno teikouwo herasunode hayaku oyogerunoda. )
