Profiles and statistics
Palutena's Guidance
- Pit: What is that? Some kind of ninja frog?
- Palutena: That's the Pokémon Greninja. Its strengths are agility and speed. What looks like a scarf is actually its tongue.
- Viridi: As a defensive measure, I suggest rubbing spicy peppers all over yourself.
- Pit: How can Greninja taste anything with its tongue hanging out like that?
- Palutena: It could be one of those rare ninjas that just eats very slowly.
- Pit: What?! But that just makes no sense! ...Anyway, just tell me how to win!
- Palutena: Greninja creates throwing stars out of compressed water and unleashes them at high speed. This attack is called Water Shuriken. If Greninja starts to charge its Water Shuriken, be prepared to reflect it back!
