Trivia

• Koaruhie and its evolution Swanna learn only Water and Flying-type attacks by level-up.

Origin

Koaruhie is seems to be based on a gosling. Its design seems to draw inspiration from the Ugly Duckling, referencing to its evolved form. It may also be from swimming tubes, which for smaller children tend to have duck head in front.

Name origin

Its name is likely a combination of 子 Ko, child, or 小 Ko, small, and a corruption of 鶩　Ahiru, duck.
