Why wouldn't Quagsire actively swim?
Because he was just so laid-back...
Their naturally relaxed temperament meant that whenever they swam, they would let their minds go blank, then "accidentally" bump into reefs or the bottoms of boats. Some even knocked themselves unconscious...
But even then, Quagsire wouldn't change their habits!
Yet when compared with the Slaking family, equally famous for being lazy, most people would choose Quagsire!
That was because Quagsire's laziness came from their temperament, making it far easier to train out of them than Slaking's Truant Ability!
The Quagsire before him had undoubtedly been raised by Crasher Wake from a young age. His temperament had been reshaped so successfully that Yong could actually see a hint of fighting spirit in those beady eyes!

Why did the level suddenly jump?
Did he raise the difficulty?
Yong gave Crasher Wake an odd look as he silently considered it.
This Quagsire has some really annoying moves! Especially Yawn!
He remembered enjoying the "hazards, phazing, and Yawn" strategy in the games in his previous life! It had been very useful in Single Battles!
The referee stepped forward, checked that both sides were ready, then announced loudly,
"Bastiodon versus Quagsire!
