Mollurn Aquargot

Description

Snails based on running water from urns and pots. I made the base stand upright since I felt having it similar to its final stage would make the process rather monotone and in risk of becoming another "it just gets bigger" thing. I suppose it can turn itself upside down and crawl away, but having the base as a filled urn and the final the urn getting emptied felt right at the time. I did consider making it Bug/Water, but as I already had a fake of that typing, along with how snails aren't really bugs in the traditional sense, I chose this typing instead. Names come from Mollusk + Urn and Aqua + Escargot. 

Notable moves: Most special water moves, Power Gem, Ice Beam, Sticky Web, Stealth Rock, Recover.

Notable lack of moves: Shell Smash, enough Rock/Water do that already.

Ah, neat concept! It makes me think of winkles. Glad to see they can't use Shell Smash, it would be akward, due to the fact that their shell is made of clay.

I don't really see why using dry skin because even clay needs water when used to make a pot, and the mon itself seems to be soaking wet in both cases. Also, clay need to be hot to make it dry correctly, I recall. So taking no damage from water is understable, but taking more damage from fire looks unexpected, in my opinion. No big deal considering they're part water, but heh, it looks interesting anyway. However sticky hold  is perfect.
