Water is strong against Fire, and weak to Electric — bring an Electric-element team into Water boss towers for the matchup advantage. Water Pals are the only species that handle Watering — keeping berry plantations alive and refilling drinking troughs. A base without a Water Pal can't sustain a self-feeding farm loop.

Water Pals are immune to: Soak.

Build a Water team in the team builder — see what it hits hard, what it is weak to, and fill the gaps.
