[[File:Carbink and Diancie.png|thumb|left|250px|Carbink variants]]
Carbink is a gray, rock-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a conical body. Its body has light blue crystals of various shapes and sizes embedded in it. A white, fluffy collar surrounds its small head. It uses this soft mane to polish the gems of other Carbink. It has bright blue eyes, a light blue crystal on top of its head, and flat diamond-shaped ears. [[M17|In some media depictions]], the fluffy collar, ears, and pattern of the blue crystals on the Carbink’s body can differ based on size and crystal pattern. Due to its small stature, it ties with {{p|Minior}} and {{p|Dwebble}} as the [[List of Pokémon by height|shortest]] {{type|Rock}}.


==In the anime==
Carbink is created from high temperatures and pressures underground and is occasionally found during cave excavations. It is known to compare its hard body with those of {{p|Geodude}} and {{p|Roggenrola}}. Following birth, it can sleep for millions of years. It is preyed upon by {{p|Sableye}}, and {{p|Gabite}} also likes to capture it. Carbink defends itself by shooting high-energy beams from the gem on its head. Rarely, Carbink will undergo a strange mutation and transform into {{p|Diancie}}. It is said that a pack of Carbink lives deep underground with their queen in a jeweled kingdom. Carbink can be found on occasion during the excavation of caves.

* Carbink is the only {{type|Rock}} Pokémon in the {{egg3|Fairy}}.
* Carbink is transferrable into {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}'s original release despite not being a [[first partner Pokémon|first partner]], [[Legendary Pokémon|Legendary]], [[Mythical Pokémon|Mythical]], in the Paldea Pokédex, or having an evolutionary relative in the Paldea Pokédex<!--Perrserker (Meowth), Quagsire (Wooper), Wyrdeer (Stantler), Kleavor (Scyther), Ursaluna (Ursaring), Basculegion (Basculin), Sneasler (Sneasel), Overqwil (Qwilfish)-->.

* Despite being catchable in the [[Area Zero Underdepths]], Carbink does not appear in the [[List of Pokémon by Paldea Pokédex number|Paldea Pokédex]] or the [[List of Pokémon by Blueberry Pokédex number|Blueberry Pokédex]].


===Origin===
===Origin===
Carbink could be based on the {{wp|Carbuncle (legendary creature)|carbuncle}}, a mythical fairy-like creature that was rumored to be able to emit light and have gemstones growing out of its body. It physically resembles {{wp|ore}}s, rocks that contains minerals with important elements that are valued for a high price.


====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Carbink may be a combination of ''carbuncle'' (referring to {{wp|Carbuncle (legendary creature)|the mythical creature}} and {{wp|Carbuncle (gemstone)|a type of gemstone}}), ''{{wp|carbon}}'' (element diamonds are composed of), ''{{wp|Carat (mass)|carat}}'', and ''tink'' (to tinkle).
