Welcome back to Ignitus' Wisdom! Today, we face an opponent straight out of the shadows, or a pond. Either works, because it's Greninja! Honestly one of the strangest Pokemon I've ever seen. But all of that aside, let's get to it!
Spyro: Guessing we're fighting another Pokemon
Ignitus: Indeed. What gave it away?
Spyro: Only they could get away with a ninja frog. It's just their kind of weird.
Ignitus: Agreed, Greninja is pretty strange. But then again, Pokemon has been going on for nearly 30 years now. So weirdness is to be expected.
Spyro: True. Though I do have to give Greninja props for being a pretty accurate shinobi.
Ignitus: How exactly does that work?
Spyro: Greninja's tongue looks to be about two meters in length, the same as the zukin, a strip of cloth ninja would wear around the lower part of their face, just like Greninja does with it's tongue. Plus, real ninjas wore dark blue, not jet black. And the list of moves Greninja can use, from Water Shuriken to Shadow Sneak, all fit the idea of strike first, without hesitation, and get the hell out of there.
Ignitus: Huh. I had no idea you had so much knowledge about shinobi.
Spyro: I saw ninja in the name, Cynder and I researched. Always come to a fight prepared.
Ignitus: Wise words.
Spyro: So how do we ensure this ninja falls?
Ignitus: If it charges up Water Shuriken, deflect it at all costs.
Spyro: Copy that.
