The Ultimate Golduck Thread
If you've been living under a rock, then here is a very brief introduction of who Golduck is.
Introduction
Golduck (Number 55) are large bipedal ducks, with blue skin and strong, webbed appendages that given them the ability to swim at high speeds. Due to their bluish color and webbed hands and feet, Golduck are sometimes mistaken for Kappa. They have more formidable psychic powers than the Psyduck they evolve from, and they lose the headaches that they constantly suffer from. The gem on their foreheads glows when they use psychic powers as well as when they swim at full speed.
They live in fresh-water lakes and rivers, where they are seen gracefully swimming, especially at dusk. As the fastest swimmers out of all Pokémon, they can out swim even the most athletic of humans, though they often train with swimmers. As they are able to swim in severe storms, they are sometimes found rescuing people lost at sea from danger.
Personal Opinion
Golduck is a Kanto original. I've always liked this pokemon. I mean just look at em, he looks so sleek and is quite mysterious. Sometimes I think he is one of the most underated pokemon of all. Personally as well, I think he should have been Water/Psychic just like Slowking and Starmie. Why he isn't...I'll never know.
Brawl Bound??
Well...it's hard to say that he'll make it as a playable character. I know, the truth hurts like hell. Still, I think he'd **** the whole competition if he were in Brawl with his telekinetic abilities. Again, he's not likely seeing how alot of other pokemon *coughcoughlucariocoughcoughcoughcoughmewtwocoughcough are way way popular than him. Che.....he's just a big fish in a little pond in his franchise.
