      BlueIts newly grown legs prevent it from running. It appears to prefer swimming than trying to stand.
      YellowThe direction of the spiral on the belly differs by area. It is more adept at swimming than walking.
      GoldBecause it is inept at walking on its newly grown legs, it always swims around in water.
      SilverThe direction of its belly spiral differs by area. The equator is thought to have an effect on this.
      CrystalThe swirl on its belly is its insides showing through the skin. It looks clearer after it eats.
      FireredIts slick black skin is thin and damp. A part of its internal organs can be seen through the skin as a spiral pattern.
      LeafgreenIts newly grown legs prevent it from walking well. It appears to prefer swimming over walking.
      HeartgoldBecause it is inept at walking on its newly grown legs, it always swims around in water.

      SunThe swirl on its belly is its internal organs showing through. If the swirl is tinged white, that means it’s affected by some disease.
      MoonIt’s still not very good at walking. Its Trainers should train this Pokémon to walk every day.
      UltraSunDespite the danger, it wants to come up on land. So it does its best to waddle along, but when an enemy finds it, it rushes back to the water.
      UltraMoonThe direction of the swirl on their stomachs differs depending on where they live. Poliwag aficionados can tell them apart at a glance.
      SwordFor Poliwag, swimming is easier than walking. The swirl pattern on its belly is actually part of the Pokémon’s innards showing through the skin.
      ShieldIn rivers with fast-flowing water, this Pokémon will cling to a rock by using its thick lips, which act like a suction cup.
