ISTP
ISTP Pokémon: The Mechanic
ISTP trainers stay calm, fix things with their hands and go their own way. Their Pokémon are cool-headed specialists: independent (I), physical and precise (S), unsentimental (T) and flexible (P). Snorlax does exactly what it wants, Scyther strikes with ninja precision, and Greninja moves without a sound. Onix tunnels through the earth at its own pace, and Ekans waits coiled in the grass for the right moment to strike. If you got ISTP, your team says little, reacts fast and never panics.

12 ISTP Pokémon and why

Ekans #23
A quiet hunter that waits coiled in the grass and strikes with cold precision.

Zubat #41
Lives in dark caves and finds its way by sound, practical and happy away from daylight.

Paras #46
It quietly does its job underground, guided by what the mushroom on its back needs.

Persian #53
Proud and aloof, Persian keeps its distance and only trusts itself.

Bellsprout #69
A patient trap: it waits still and snaps when prey comes close.

Onix #95
It tunnels through the earth at its own pace, solid and unbothered.

Voltorb #100
It looks like a Poké Ball and explodes without warning: unpredictable but simple.

Koffing #109
It floats around full of toxic gas, unpredictable and indifferent to complaints.

Horsea #116
It hides among coral and shoots ink with precision when threatened.

Scyther #123
Lightning-fast and silent, it slices through the grass with ninja-like precision.

Magmar #126
It lives near volcanoes and prefers the heat and its own company; Magmortar aims with care.

Kabuto #140
An ancient survivor that hides on the seabed and strikes with practical precision.
