    Someone did you a disservice by giving you the wrong answer.

    It’s because it’s a powerful water type which is one of the more powerful types in Pokemon. It’s easy to get early in the mid game and can carry you through to end game. Really, you should tell everyone you like Vaporeon.

    I won my first tournament with Vaporeon. It was when I was a teenager and it wasn’t an official thing. Just something setup with my school. Turned out my crush was in the final round with me. She bet that if I win she’d give me $20 and if she won she’d have me come do chores at her house.

    I didn’t really need the $20 so I agreed to have her come do my chores when I won. Got a lot of teasing for that, but it got her over to my place. Imagine my surprise when the chore was her taking a huge dump on my chest. Like, she had never eaten a wheaty in her life.
