A hardy creature, Corphish is able to live in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|polluted water}} and eat nearly anything. Though not native to [[Alola]], Corphish set free by Trainers here have easily adapted and thrived in the region. {{p|Feebas}} and Corphish are the only Pokémon known to be able to live in stagnant ditches.
