Helmsman is Colton's Samurott, and the first Pokémon he acquired, one year before his original journey.

Personality

Helmsman is hot-headed and fun-loving, always excited for the next battle or any variety of action. He gets irritable rather quickly, sometimes having the dry wit Sylveon does. Beneath the hotheaded exterior is a guiding figure with years of combat under his belt, eager to become stronger, even by learning his weaknesses, or those of others.

Background

Given as an Oshawott as a housewarming present for Colton after he moved to Accumula, their relationship was initially very fraught. Due to the - at the time non-nicknamed - Oshawott's disdain for the teenager Colton once was, he often threw his scalchop at his trainer's head.

Only after Team Plasma made their speech in Accumula did the two decide to put aside their differences to find the team and show them how wrong they were.

However, they were too late to do so, and so took up residence in Castelia for years before they met the J-Team.

Battle Strategy

If he has the chance, Helmsman favors using Rain Dance and Swords Dance to augment his Water-type attacks, which he has the most faith in. If he can’t do that, he has a variety of special moves to fall back on.

If he can, he capitalizes on opponent’s mistakes with surprising speed, leaving battlefields submerged in ever-increasing amounts of water he can weaponize with a flick of his wrist.

He wields a seamitar right-handed, backhanded, for defensive reasons.
