Why it's so fast

Game data

Barraskewda sits here because the games give it a base Speed of 136. That integer is a battle stat. The explanation is game lore, not a running speed.

  1. A stat, not a stopwatch

    Base Speed is the number a battle uses before natures, items and stages. PokéAPI, Bulbapedia and Serebii agree on 136 for Barraskewda. None of them timed an animal.

  2. A pike, in the games

    Barraskewda is drawn as a long, sharp fish, and the Pokédex treats it as something that charges. The high base Speed is the battle stat for that charge. It is not a measured swim.

  3. One species block

    Barraskewda has one main base Speed. A Mega, a regional form or a fusion is a different row when the games publish a different integer.

Nearby on the base Speed list: Zamazenta and Iron Bundle. Same kind of stat. Different lore.
