*The {{smw|microgame}} "{{smw|Electric Groove Fish}}" in WarioWare, Inc. Mega Microgame$ for Game Boy Advance shows a fish similarly shaped to Whiscash, complete with a "W" on its forehead.
===Origin===
Whiscash may be based on ''{{wp|Namazu (Japanese mythology)|Namazu}}'', a {{wp|catfish}} in Japanese mythology which caused earthquakes. Since its pre-evolution appears to be based on a {{wp|loach}}, it may also draw inspiration from {{wp|loach catfish}}.
