do you think they survived?

>>33208387
RIP

>>33208387
Yes
Normal water does not harm pokemon who are weak to water
You see, the water that is created inside a pokemon's body is not the same kind of water that humans and pokemon need to drink in order to survive

Much like how like pokemon fire is not the same as natural fire

I imagine so. They probably dragged themselves to land afyerwards and then fainted. This is the anime afterall. Death is near nonexistant.

How will they climb out?

>water isn't water

Unless you're talking about something specifically IN the water, water is water. That's what makes it... water.

Where does it ever say there's something in the water?

Retarded headcanon

>>33208496
Pokémon fire and water are not the same as real fire and water in some generic way. It's borderline headcanon but it's pretty obvious. A kid can hug his Slugma and not instantly die, and plenty of fire and rock types seem to survive water or rain being on them despite the fact it should be genocide weather. It's like the ashime doing the charmanders tail thing wrong

Gravellord can power through anything. Same goes for its siblings.

dont worry guys.... s-sturdy

>>33208400
i really think that's water they are falling into, and why that graveller's looking scared as hell.

maybe they all have the sturdy ability to keep shit family friendly. the anime always has an excuse

>>33208387
They probably walked to the side, and if it was too steep they piled one one another then formed a chain to pull the rest up, asap.

Well, fire is actually a little bit more believable. Sorta. Fire itself isn't really a 'thing' bit rather the energy released from breaking chemical bonds via combustion. As such, the heat of a fire is dependent on the energy release of the combusting material; it's possible to have fires burning at relatively low temperatures. Although its actually rare to find that happening naturally. Still doesn't explain things like Slugma which is magma supposedly hotter than the sun.

Water, though, is always composed of two hydrogen and one oxygen molecules. Anything else and its factually not water, that's what I'm getting uppity about. The water can't be different, there has to be something in it for there to be a notable difference.

If we're going full stupid headcanon about it, then I'd expect there to be an additional chemical component or enzyme mixed into the pokemon water.

Even in a fictional world where living animals can create an infinite amount of water from random places on their body?
Applying real life physics to a cartoon that brazenly breaks them is headcanon as well

>>33208615
Are you thick? The thread is about the anime breaking it's own rules, we're not IGNORING it we're MOCKING it

They're probably fine, seeing as how those wooper and surskit most likely helped them out.

Also, pokemon that are weak to water can tolerate being submerged to a degree.
Seeing as they were graveler/golem, they might have only had a few seconds to get out before passing out.

Pic related. It's a sandshrew training to tolerate water better.

Yes, because any other combination of elements creates different chemicals that already exists. If it's not the same water, then it is literally not water.

Generally speaking, you should assume every rule of a fictional world works the same as the real world unless specifically stated otherwise; considering the fact that the real world is the only baseline we have to on. Otherwise there are literally no rules.

We can assume, since we have never been told otherwise, that water is H2O, the world is round, respiration occurs with oxygen, gravity still works, etc.

Pokemon have literally been described as magic before, so I honestly don't care HOW the water comes to be, but the physical properties of water need to be the same.

>>33208676
In the real world.
It is explicitly stated that Pokémon do not follow our universes rules when Slugma doesn't combust the entire surface of the planet. It is implied when a rock type who can die to water gun falls into a river and is fine.
It's implied when a creature defies the laws of matter and thermodynamics and produces water out of sweet fuck all.

Your defense seems to be "It's never been STATED their world doesn't follow ours"
It's never been STATED than any head canon is true. Head canon is things that have never been stated but could be true and make sense.

We're debating headcanon right now.

Graveller is such a wonderful mon

It can't be worse than using Explosion.

Sturdy.

Rain doesn't hurt pokemon weak to water type in battle. Water type attacks therefore are damaging because of the force of the attack, and the water elemental just modifies that damage. So for OP's question they would take damage from the fall, but so would any living thing falling into a body of water from a great height.

>>33208387
Guys.

It's water.

They weigh hundreds of pounds.

It doesn't matter whether they're rock type or not. They're gonna sink and drown.
