From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Rudy's Starmie (Japanese: ジギーのスターミー Jigī's Starmie) was one of the Pokémon Rudy chose in his gym battle against Ash.
It was shown to be powerful and fast, two attributes which are typical of Starmie. As with most of Rudy's Pokémon, Stamie was proficient in modern dance, and used it to help avoid attacks thrown at it by Ash's Squirtle. It also demonstarted a powerful Water Gun, being able to beat Squirtle in a standoff. Despite being quick and having Thunderbolt at its disposal, it was ultimately weakened by Squirtle's newly learned Hydro Pump, and finished with a Skull Bash.

- Misty, the object of Rudy's affection, also owns a Starmie.
