Walkatrout has a slippery body.^[1][2] Because of this, a Vladat's Corrupturas cannot attach to him.^{[DJW 1]}

Walkatrout has gills and can breathe underwater.^[3]

Walkatrout has a degree of enhanced durability, as is shown when he was knocked onto the ground along with Speedyquick.^[2]

Although his body is quite weak, his tail is somewhat strong, as he was able to hurt Liam with it and escape.^[1]

Weaknesses

Walkatrout is physically very weak, and he is not suited for hand-to-hand combat. He also has no hands, which makes grabbing things impossible for him.

While Walkatrout's slippery body can be used well as a strength, it also prevents him from being held up by his teammates.
