The Squirtle Squad (Japanese: ゼニガメ団 Zenigame Squad) is a group of Squirtle who were abandoned by their Trainers. They are easily identifiable by the fact that they all wear sunglasses.

History

Original series

Kanto

Their first appearance was Here Comes the Squirtle Squad. They used to run wild in a small town in Kanto stealing things, writing graffiti and causing trouble for travelers in the area. Once they were tricked by Meowth of Team Rocket, who made a deal for them to help himself, Jessie and James capture Ash's Pikachu. While chasing it, Pikachu sustained a nasty injury from a Goldeen. In order to help Pikachu recover, Ash convinced the Squirtle Squad to allow him to obtain a Super Potion; however, if he didn't return by noon the next day, they would kill Misty (in the dub, they threatened to dye her hair purple). By the time Ash returned, Team Rocket had arrived and decided to bomb the Squirtle Squad, causing a forest fire. Everyone went to find cover in the Squirtle Squad's cave, but, the leader of the Squirtle Squad was stuck on its back, forcing Ash to go back to help it. Working together with Ash, the Squirtle Squad defeated Team Rocket and put out the fire; they were given the title of "Town Fire Fighters," for their good work by Officer Jenny. However, the leader of the Squirtle Squad decided that it would rather travel with Ash; Ash's newly-acquired Squirtle wanted to repay him for saving its life by joining Ash's team.

Johto

The Squirtle Squad reunited with its leader when they entered a Pokémon firefighting competition in Johto in The Fire-ing Squad!. They were pitted against Team Wartortle, a group Ash's Squirtle had encountered in the Orange Islands. Ash's Squirtle decided to rejoin the Squad and has continued with them ever since, with the exception of the Silver Conference and the final battle with Brandon.

Advanced Generation series

The Squirtle Squad, including Ash's Squirtle, appeared in Of Meowth and Pokémon Part 1 and Part 2. Three of the members ambushed Smoochum and attacked her with a Water Gun, sending her flying. They were shown in a flashback in Gathering the Gang of Four!.

Squirtle Squad in Sun & Moon

The members of the Squirtle Squad, minus Ash's Squirtle, also appeared in Pichu Bros. in Party Panic, helping Meowth set up his party.

Sun & Moon series

The Squirtle Squad made a cameo reappearance in Alola, Kanto!, where Rotom managed to take a picture of them.

Personality and characteristics

The Squirtle Squad were once troublemakers before their leader joined Ash. The Squirtles stole food, vandalized, and caused trouble for people. However, after Ash saved their leader from a fire, the Squirtle Squad changed their ways and began fighting fires alongside Officer Jenny.

Trivia

  • The Squirtle Squad's leader is referenced in Pokémon Yellow, when an Officer Jenny tells the player she has caught a Squirtle that was constantly getting into mischief. She mentions it needs a good Trainer to take care of it, and will give it to the player after he/she defeats Lt. Surge.
  • All members of the Squirtle Squad appear to have heads that are a slightly different shape from all other Squirtle, and of course each other.
