Barboach (Japanese: ドジョッチ Dojoach) is a dual-type Water/Ground Pokémon.
It evolves into Whiscash starting at level 30.
Biology
Barboach is a small, serpentine Pokémon that resembles a loach. The main body is a soft gray with a jagged black line running its length. Its eyes are very small, and it has a round, blue nose. It has several blue barbels that are used as a superb radar in murky water, and can be used for taste as well. These whiskers are left exposed when it hides in the mud to wait for prey. There are two rounded, blue pectoral fins and a single dorsal fin, all of which have black spots. Its tail fin it also rounded and blue, but possess no spots. A slimy film covers it and protects it from bacteria and allows it to get away easily when grabbed. If it does not stay moist, it dries up and weakens. Because of this, it is usually found at the water's edge if not in the water.
