'''Corphish''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヘイガニ''' ''Heigani'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


=Pokédex entries=
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Crawdaunt}} starting at [[level]] 30.
; [[Pokémon Emerald]]
: Once it grips prey with its large pincers, it will never let go, no matter what. It is a hardy Pokémon that can thrive in any environment.


=Name origin=
==Biology==
Corphish's name is a pun on ''[[wp:crayfish|crayfish]]''. The word ''corfish'' is an arcane Newfoundland fishing term, possibly meaning "wet fish" or "codfish." Its Japanese name is based on 平家蟹 ''heikegani'', [[wp:Heike crab|Heike crab]].
Corphish is a red-shelled, crustacean Pokémon with a short tail similar to a lobster. Its eyes are saucer-like with small pupils, and it has three spikes on top of its head. It possesses four pairs of limbs in total: two large pincers used for gripping prey, and three pairs of legs used for walking. The upper segments of its legs, underside of its body and lower halves of its pincers are cream-colored.


Corphish is based on a crayfish or Heike crab.
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 there 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.

==Trivia==
*Corphish is the only Pokémon to date with a [[catch rate]] of 205.
*Corphish can be found in the Hoenn region, but it says in its Pokédex entries that it came from another region overseas. This would make it the first exotic species in the Pokémon world.
*Corphish's tendency to say "Hey, hey!" in such games as [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]] and [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]] is a reference to its Japanese name, "Heigani".
 
===Origin===
Based on its {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Ruby}} [[Pokédex]] entry, Corphish is probably based on the {{wp|Procambarus clarkii|red swamp crayfish}}, which, like Corphish, are invasive pests in many areas.
 
====Name origin====
Corphish may be a combination of ''{{wp|corps}}'' (a branch of military servicemen; pronounced as ''core'') or ''{{wp|corporal}}'' (a member of the military or police force) and ''{{wp|crayfish}}'' (the species it is based on). Alternatively, it could derive from the archaic Newfoundland fishing term ''corfish'', which are a type of dried fish.
 
Heigani is a combination of 弊 ''hei'' (''a bad habit'' or ''to harm'') or 兵 ''hei'' (army/troops) and ''ebigani'' (crayfish).
