Cubone	Type 1: Ground Type 2:

With its power to draw Electric-type moves away from other Pokemon, Cubone is easily the best partner for Squirtle.

It also has access to a lot of Fire-type moves via TM, so Cubone can take care of pesky Grass-types as well.

Move	Type	Effect
Brick Break	Fighting	It damages an enemy. It also shatters the enemy's Reflect, Light Screen, and Aurora Veil conditions.
